This Loaded Carrot Cake is one of my all time favorite desserts.  I just don’t make it very often.  Actually, it is usually the one dessert that I order when we go out to eat.

I think the reason I do not make it very often is because I would eat it ALL tiny sliver by sliver. And that’s never good when you are trying to be good and to eat healthy.

So what did I do instead?  I made a loaf of carrot bread with lots of carrots and coconut added in.  I feel better eating this sweet bread for breakfast because it’s technically a healthy carrot bread because of all the orange veggies in it. Right? Wink, wink!
