Directions
Bread
Preheat your oven to 375°F. Lightly grease a loaf pan using butter or oil and line with parchment paper. Leave an inch of parchment paper hanging over on the sides for an easy removal.
In a bowl, add the milk, oil, egg, vanilla extract, honey and grated carrots, stirring everything together until combined.
Next, add the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice and cloves into the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined. Do not overmix! Fold in chopped apples.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and evenly spread it out.
Bake for 55-60 minutes, or until a toothpick or knife that is inserted in the middle comes out clean. NOTE: Midway, poke very small holes all over the bread to allow heat to penetrate through and to ensure it cooks through so that the centers aren’t uncooked.
Honey Glaze
In a bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, honey and milk until smooth and the glaze is thick enough, but slowly slides off whisk when lifted. If the glaze is too thick, add 1 tablespoon of milk; if too thin, add 1-2 tablespoons of powdered sugar.
Once bread has cooled, drizzle with honey glaze, slice and enjoy!
