Carrot Cake Breakfast Bread

6 cups Carrots, shredded (728 grams)
1 cup Raisins
1 tsp Cinnamon, ground
½ tsp Nutmeg, ground

Apple Cinnamon Bread

10 cups Apples (~10 medium), peeled, small dice
2 tsp Cinnamon, ground

Cranberry Orange Bread

1 cup Dried cranberries, rehydrated. Soak dried cranberries in warm water for 20-30 minutes to rehydrate, then drain water before incorporating cranberries into the mix.
1 tsp orange extract

Instructions:

Preheat the oven to 350°F. Spray a full-size 2-inch hotel pan with non-stick cooking spray.
Combine the all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour, baking powder, and salt in a large mixing bowl.
In a separate bowl, combine the milk, eggs, honey, and oil and whisk until it becomes a cohesive mixture. Add this mixture to the flour mixture (from step 2). Use a large rubber spatula to fold by hand, or on low speed in a mixer until evenly moistened, but careful not to overmix.
Add desired spices and mix-ins of choice (optional) and add into prepared hotel pans, evening out the top with a rubber spatula.
Bake until golden brown, about 25-30 minutes. Cool in the pans on racks before removing from pans. Serve warm or at room temperature.
