Vegan Carrot Bread– you’re going to LOVE this one bowl vegan bread that’s easy to make and so so delicious! A great snack or vegan breakfast recipe!
Quite a while back, someone reached out to me on Instagram and told me that they doubled my Carrot Cake Muffins recipe and made a bread out of it. They said it was delicious and I instantly wanted to give it a try.
NEWS ALERT: it’s delicious and we’re making it today!
The bread turned out perfectly fluffy, moist, and so so good! It has me excited about trying it with a few different variations of my vegan muffins. Don’t worry- I’ll keep you updated on it :D
What’s in the healthy vegan bread:
- Flour (you can use a gluten free alternative)
- Cinnamon
- Maple syrup for sweetness
- Almond milk
- Nut butter
- mashed bananas
- grated carrot
- optional nuts
How to make Vegan Carrot Bread
Because I like things to be easy and as mess free as possible, we’re making this Vegan Carrot Bread in ONE BOWL! Yay!
We’ll start by whisking together all of the dry ingredients before folding in all of the wet ingredients. The carrots and nuts are folded in at the end. The batter gets poured into a loaf pan and baked for about 45 minutes until a nice golden brown.
THAT’S IT! I love easy recipes :)
That’s all for today, folks! I’m sure that I will be back very soon with more delicious vegan bread recipes :D

Made this the first time last night and my husband and I almost ate the whole loaf! I used half whole wheat and half all purpose flours. I also added some chunks of fresh pineapple which made it absolutely scrumptious. Will be making these into cupcakes next.
You had me at peanut butter! ☺️Actually making it now for the 2nd time! That’s how good this recipe is! Thanks for sharing! ❤️
Loved it! Very moist.
I made it twice , added a handful of raisins the second time.
Can you sub maple syrup with honey?
Can I replace the maple syrup with corn syrup and nut butter with canola oil?
Love this recipe! I threw in some raisins and unsweetened coconut too. So yummy! Thanks.
OMG this was soooo goood!! I found this recipe while looking for ideas on what to do with some extra carrots I had. Thankfully, I had every other ingredient as well. My 13yr old son wants to learn how to bake, so I let him do it all. I just told him how much of everything to use. We followed the recipe exactly (except for the nuts because we didn’t have any), and it came out PERFECTLY!
The hint of peanut butter is to die for! Will definitely make again! Thank you :)
This was my first vegan recipe and it was delish! It would be nice to know the calories count though.
yay so glad that you liked them! I’ve been working on updating all of my recipes with nutritional info. Will get it added to this recipe in the next day or so!
I haven’t made any of your recipes yet but I am excited to find your page. It is so rare to find yummy vegan baked good that use flour. I am so excited!! Thanks so much!
hahah! It’s true- so many vegan bloggers also lean towards almond flour etc. I like those recipes but sometimes I just REALLY want something that’s vegan AND as close tasting to the classic as possible. I have a lot of those recipes :D
