Friday.....Carrot Orange Loaf

Ponteng kerja hari ni......arhhhhh don't feel like going to work today. Hahahaha .....rasa macam zaman kerja dengan Airline dulu. Agak2 rasa takut nak kerja sebab nak terbang dengan senior yang garang gila, apa lagi kelam kabut cari mc. Well, that is all history now, just a good memory for me when once a while i remember back the good old days.



Boring jugak when at home I got nothing to do, while browsing the book rack ( actually nak kemas book rack heeheehee....) feel like trying my fav chef Anna Olson's recipe . It's carrot and orange loaf, Dapat lah jugak ku menjamu guest yang datang rumah.


Here is the recipe

Ingredients:
1⁄2 cup vegetable oil
1 cup sugar
1 large egg
1 cup finely shredded carrot
1⁄2 tsp finely grated orange zest
11⁄2 cups all-purpose flour*
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1⁄2 tsp finely grated orange zest
1⁄2 tsp baking soda
1⁄2 tsp baking powder
1⁄2 tsp ground nutmeg
1⁄2 tsp salt
Preheat oven to 350°F and grease a loaf pan.

Whisk oil, sugar and egg to blend. Stir in grated carrot and orange zest. In a separate bowl, sift flour with cinnamon, baking soda, baking powder, nutmeg and salt. Stir flour mixture in carrot mixture and stir just until blended.

Scrape into prepared pan and bake for 55 to 60 minutes, until a tester inserted in the centre of the cake comes out clean. After cooled for 10 minutes, turn loaf out to cool completely.

*You can replace half of this measure of all-purpose flour with whole wheat four if you wish.
