Method

Begin by preheating your oven to 175c.

In a separate bowl, add the almond flour, arrowroot, milled flaxseed and coconut flour and mix.

Add the baking soda, spices and salt. Mix everything together again.

Slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet and mix. Add the mashed bananas and mix again.

Fold in the grated carrot and sultanas and mix until everything is combined.

Line a 9x5 loaf tin with parchment paper and add the mixture to the tin. Flatten and top with your favourite carrot cake toppings. Pop in the middle of the oven to bake for 50-60 minutes.

Please keep an eye on your bread.

Once baked, remove from the oven and leave to cool completely before slicing. Store in an airtight container and consume within 3 days for freshness.
