Carrot Bread Or Muffins

• 1 c. grated carrot (about 3 medium carrots, peeled)
• 3 tsp. grated ginger or 1 tsp ground ginger
• 1 c. brown sugar
• 1/2 c. vegetable oil
• 1/4 c. applesauce
• 3 T soy milk or water
• 2 tsp flax seed, optional
• 1 1/2 c. flour
• 1 tsp. salt
• 1 tsp. baking powder
• 1 tsp. cinnamon
• 1/4 tsp. nutmeg
• 1 1/2 tsp. vanilla extract

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
2. In a medium bowl, sift flour and spices, being careful to sift the baking powder to avoid clumps.
3. Mix wet ingredients, flax seed and grated ginger in a large bowl with a whisk. Add sugar and continue to mix.
4. Gradually add dry ingredients until mixture is smooth. It will seem a bit dry. Mix in grated carrot (it will now have a much smoother, more moist consistency) and pour into 2 greased mini-loaf pans and bake for 30-40 minutes, or until top has risen and browned and toothpick or knife stuck in the middle of the loaf comes out clean.
