Carrot-Pecan Loaf Cake

I love carrot cake and I found the most delicious carrot cake recipe ever.  Thanks to Southern Living Magazine, I will never search for another carrot cake recipe again.  Seriously, it is the best.  Even they call it "Best Carrot Cake Ever".  The buttermilk glazed, triple layer, cream cheese frosting covered cake is worth the effort. You will use a ton of dishes.  You will spend a lot of time in the kitchen.  You will reap the rewards when all is said and done.  Looking for a quick carrot-cake fix?  Look no further than the recipe I found below.

BonAppetit Magazine publishes an "R.S.V.P." recipe where readers request recipes from certain restaurants and BonAppetit delivers!   A reader requested the recipe for the Breads Bakery Carrot-Walnut Loaf Cake.  When I stumbled across this restaurant recipe for Carrot-Walnut Loaf Cake in the Bon Appetit magazine (May 2015), I knew I had to try it.  It seemed like an easy enough recipe plus it came from Breads Bakery in New York - - - I knew it would be a winner.   

I ended up doubling the recipe because I wanted to be able to share the bread with friends.  The loaves turned out delicious and I followed the recipe exactly, subbing pecans for the walnuts.  I even ended up using a mini loaf pan (9 mini loaves in one pan, which took about 40-45min).  Those were like personal portable Carrot-Pecan Loaf Cakes!

For the Recipe:  Carrot-Walnut Loaf Cake in the Bon Appetit magazine (May 2015) (I used pecans instead of walnuts).
