INGREDIENTS (Nutrition)

  • 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup white sugar
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 3 eggs, beaten
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 2 cups shredded carrots
  • 1 (3.5 ounce) package flaked coconut
  • 1/2 cup maraschino cherries, chopped
  • 1/2 cup raisins
  • 1/2 cup chopped walnuts

DIRECTIONS

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a 9x5 inch loaf pan.
  2. In a large bowl, sift together flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon and salt. Combine eggs, oil and milk; stir into flour mixture until well blended. Stir in carrots, coconut, cherries, raisins and walnuts. Pour batter into prepared pan.
