Ingredients (serves 8)
1 ½ cups (150g) grated carrot
1 mashed banana
2 eggs
1 cup (100g) almond flour
1 cup (100g) Vanilla Milkshake Glow Shake
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
½ teaspoon mixed spice
2 teaspoons baking powder
½ cup chopped walnuts and raisins
For the frosting
125g light spreadable cream cheese
1 tablespoon Vanilla Milkshake Glow Shake
1 tablespoon water
Method
Preheat the oven to 160°C and line a loaf tin with baking paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine all of the loaf ingredients and mix until well combined.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf tin and bake for 1 hour, or until a toothpick inserted into the centre comes out clean.
Allow the loaf to cool completely.
In a small bowl, mix together the frosting ingredients until smooth and well combined.
Spread the frosting evenly over the cooled loaf, using the back of a spoon to create little swirls or flecks.
Slice and enjoy!
