CARROT-RAISIN BREAD

This tasty bread is low in saturated fat and cholesterol, thanks to the small amount of oil and egg used.

1-1/2 C sifted all-purpose flour

1/2 C sugar

1 tsp baking powder

1/4 tsp baking soda

1/2 tsp salt

1-1/2 tsp ground cinnamon

1/4 tsp ground allspice

1 egg, beaten

1/2 C water

2 Tbsp vegetable oil

1/2 tsp vanilla

1-1/2 C finely shredded carrots

1/4 C chopped pecans

1/4 C golden raisins 

Preheat oven to 350º F. Lightly oil a 9x5x3 inch loaf pan.

Stir together dry ingredients in large mixing bowl. Make a well in center of dry mixture.
