Ingredients

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 0.5 teaspoons baking soda
• 0.5 teaspoons salt
• 2 large eggs
• 0.5 cup vegetable oil
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 0.5 cup whole milk
• 1.5 cups shredded carrots
• 0.75 cup raisins
• 0.75 cup sweetened shredded coconut
• 1 tablespoon unsalted butter (for greasing)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan with unsalted butter or line it with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, baking soda, and salt.

Step 3

In a separate bowl, beat the eggs, vegetable oil, vanilla extract, and milk until well combined.

Step 4

Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Do not overmix.

Step 5

Fold in the shredded carrots, raisins, and shredded coconut until evenly distributed throughout the batter.

Step 6

Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top with a spatula.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 55-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Step 8

Remove the bread from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Then, transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing and serving.
