This recipe is great. It makes a very light (not compact) carrot bread/cake and is so simple to make!! I substituted light muscovado sugar for the brown sugar and cake was darker than usual but just as yummy.

MIMI'S CAFE CARROT RAISIN BREAD

Found this recipe on a Sacramento paper's website and it is delish! Differs from the other recipe posted on this site. I've never been to Mimi's Cafe but if this bread is any indication it must be a special place. This is sweet, moist and dense without being too dense - perfect carrot bread in my opinion!
