2 teaspoons cinnamon |
2 teaspoons baking powder |
1 teaspoon baking soda |
1 teaspoon salt |
3 cups carrots, grated |
1/2 cup pecans, chopped |
2 cups apples, peeled, cored, and chopped |
Directions:
1. Heat oven to 350°F.
2. Beat eggs well gradually adding sugar until mixture is light and fluffy (about 5 minutes).
3. Add oil and beat until well incorporated.
4. Sift the dry ingredients together and fold into the egg mixture.
5. Grate carrots.
6. Peel, core, and chop apples.
7. Chop pecans.
8. Fold in carrots, apples and nuts.
9. Pour batter into a greased and floured 9x13-inch pan.
10. Bake for 45 minutes in the middle of the oven.
