Carrot Cake Banana Bread

Serves: 4

Ingredients

- 1½ bananas, mashed

- 2 eggs

- ½ cup grated carrot

- 1 tbsp olive oil

- ½ tsp cinnamon

- 1 cup Spotty Baking Date-Sweetened Banana Bread Mix

- ¼ cup walnuts, roughly chopped


Cream Cheese Frosting

- ½ tub (125g) light cream cheese

- 2 tbsp thick Greek yoghurt

- 1 tsp maple syrup

- Crushed walnuts, to finish


Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 180°C. Lightly grease a small rectangular baking dish
    (around 18cm x 12cm).
  2. Mash the banana directly in the dish. Add the eggs, grated carrot, olive oil and cinnamon, then whisk until well combined.
  3. Stir in the Spotty Baking Banana Bread mix and chopped walnuts until just combined.
  4. Bake for 20–25 minutes, or until a skewer inserted into the centre comes out clean. Allow to cool completely in the dish.
  5. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, whisk together the cream cheese, Greek yoghurt and maple syrup until smooth.
  6. Spread the frosting over the cooled banana bread and scatter with crushed walnuts.
  7. Serve immediately, or store covered in the fridge.
