13. Carrot Apple Bread
Carrot cake infused with apples and baked in a loaf pan is another way to satisfy a sweet tooth without going overboard.Sour cream (or Greek yogurt) and coconut oil instead of butter add to this rich, moist, dense bread. Eat it plain or add her browned butter glaze. Maybe try it both ways…
