Carrot Bread

Ahhhhhh....at last my post of the day is my favourite and also my daughter's...Carrot bread.. I used a small bundt mould instead of the loaf pan coz i love how the bread look like when it's done.
Actually what makes me bake this bread is i ran out of idea of how to make my daughter eat vegetable. Any idea how to make your children love veg?Been trying everything i could but the result is still the same and i decided to try this recipe. Not bad coz she love the bread...yeahh!! She's the bread lover anyway. And for the hubby and son, they seem to like it too, not bad ehh...!!
This afternoon we went to China Town and this is a photo i took. Still not knowing the subject of it. (Sigh....!!!) Well...keep on trying, don't give up!
Better go to bed now, it's late already. Bye!

Instruction : Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a standard 9x5 inch loaf pan with butter or cooking spray. Beat together the butter and sugars until light and fluffy, about 5 minutes with an electric mixer. Add the egg, milk, orange zest and vanilla and continue to beat until well incorporate. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder and soda, cinnamon and salt. Add the carrots and toss to coat in the flour mixture. Stir the dry mixture into the wet mixture in three additions, stirring just until blended. Over mixing the batter will create a tough cake. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and sprinkle pistachios on top. Bake for about 1 hour or until a toothpick is inserted and comes out clean.  Remove from the oven and cool completely on a wire rack. Serve with butter and salt sweetened whipped cream.
