directions

  • Mix first 3 items together until smooth and creamy (eggs, applesauce and Splenda).
  • Then add flour, carrots, milk, cinnamon, orange zest, baking soda and baking powder. Mix well until thick like a pancake batter, then add raisins if desired.
  • Pour into two sprayed loaf pans and bake for 45 minutes at 325°F.
  • Check with a toothpick.
  • Remove from oven and cool on a wire rack. Ice loaves once completely cooled.
  • CREAM CHEESE ICING.
  • Warm cream cheese in microwave for 45 seconds on high (makes it easier to blend with other ingredients).
  • Add Splenda, vanilla and frozen whipped topping.
  • Blend until smooth.
  • Add more Splenda if you prefer a sweeter icing.

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

My husband and I have been married since 1992 and, after years spent pursuing my career I chose to give it up and became a very proud mother of a little girl born January 2006. <br>I enjoy spending time with family and close friends and sharing great food and recipes. <br>I like quick and easy recipes and will often try to reduce fat or sugar where ever possible. I do prefer to make my own food from scratch, as then I know all the ingredients that went into its preparation. <br>My favorite cookbooks are the Southern Living series. <br><img src=http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/gg271/MrsTeny/Permanent%20Collection/PACSpring09Iwasadopted.jpg>
