Carrot bread by Refettorio Mérida

The recipe he has chosen to share here is one that is very easy to make at home, taking advantage of ingredients that are usually not used, like leftover bread and carrot peels. 

Step 01

Blend the bread to a powdery consistency and strain to make sure there are no whole pieces left.

Step 02

In the mixer add the egg to start beating at a medium speed and add the sugar little by little.

Step 03

In a container add all the powdered ingredients (baking soda, cinnamon, bread crumbs, salt).

Step 04

Once you have obtained a fluffy mixture of egg and previously beaten sugar, reduce the speed and add the powder mixture in the form of rain. Then add the carrot peel to incorporate into the mix.

Step 05

Then pour the oil in the form of a thread until a homogeneous mixture is obtained.

Step 06

In a 30 cm mold add a splash of oil and spread all over its parts to prevent it from sticking. Add the mixture in the previously oiled mold and bake at 160°c for 40 minutes.

Step 07

After the time has elapsed to verify that it is ready, insert a toothpick into the center of the bread, if it comes out clean, the bread is ready. Let cool and unmold it.

Step 08

In a pot, add the sugar for the caramel until it starts to melt, add the cinnamon and then the water.

Step 09

With the help of a mandolin, make simple carrot slices.

Step 10

Varnish the bread with the caramel with the help of a brush and stick the carrot slices on the bread and finally cover the caramel slices with the remaining caramel.
