Eggless Carrot Nut Bread


I had another recipe in mind for today's "Carrot" based post but couldn't resist when I came across this bread, here. I converted this into an eggless one and it turned out really delicious. I was very happy with the result and so this carrot - nut bread makes it appearance here during BM#23.

Ingredients:
1.5 cups flour
2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
1/4 cup coarsely chopped nuts (I used walnuts.)
1.5 cups shredded carrot
3/4 cup sugar
1/3 cup melted butter / oil
1/2 cup yogurt
1 Tbsp flax meal

Method:
* Mix flax meal and 3 Tbsp warm water in a bowl and keep aside for about 5 minutes.
* Heat oven to 350 deg F. Grease a loaf pan 9X5X3 inches and keep aside.
* Mix carrots, sugar, butter, yogurt and flax meal solution in a  bowl. Stir in the remaining ingredients. Pour the batter into the loaf pan.
* Bake for 50 -60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool, remove the loaf from pan and slice.
