- 1 C (149 GR) raisins
- Zest of ½ orange
- ½ C (113 GR) orange juice (from about 1½ oranges)
- 1 LG carrot (145 GR) (peeled)
- 1 LG or 2 MED sweet apples (275 GR) (like Honeycrisp or Gala) (cored – no need to peel)
- 3 LG eggs (room temperature)
- ⅔ C (133 GR) vegetable oil
- ¼ C (78 GR) maple syrup
- 2 TSP vanilla Extract
- 1⅓ C (150 GR) golden wheat flour
- ⅔ C (62 GR) oat flour or 2 C (226 GR) white whole wheat flour
- 1 C (53 GR) unsweetened coconut (shredded)
- ½ C (57 GR) dried cranberries (roughly chopped)
- 1 TBS cinnamon
- 1½ TSP table salt
- 1½ TSP baking powder
- ¼ TSP baking soda
- 1 TBS (11 GR) raw sugar (optional)
Oven: 350° F
- Preheat the oven with a rack in the center. Grease a 9″x5″ loaf pan, a 9″x4″ Pullman loaf pan, or a tea loaf pan and line with a parchment sling. Grease the parchment.
- In a small saucepan, combine the raisins, zest, and orange juice. Simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until all or nearly all the liquid is absorbed, 5 to 7 minutes. Transfer the mixture to a food processor and blend until you have a mostly smooth paste. Then add the carrot and apple; pulse in short bursts until they’re broken down into small pieces but not yet puréed.
- In a large bowl, whisk the eggs, oil, maple syrup, and vanilla until well combined. Add the raisin mixture and whisk to combine.
- Add the flours, coconut, cranberries, cinnamon, salt, baking powder, and baking soda and whisk to combine.
- Transfer the batter to the prepared pan and smooth the top. Sprinkle evenly with raw sugar, if using.
- Bake the morning glory bread for 60 to 70 minutes, until a toothpick or thin knife inserted into the center comes out clean and the internal temperature registers at least 200° F (it’s better to err on the side of overbakin GR). Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then use the parchment sling to transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely. Slice and serve at room temperature or reheat as desired.
- Store morning glory bread well-wrapped at room temperature for up to 3 days; freeze for longer storage.
