Whole Wheat Carrot Walnut Raisin Bread (No Oil)

Summer is almost gone and the warm and bright sun will be missed. But the house is already getting warm with the tasty nutty oven fresh breads. I can see the holidays coming:)

My family loves breads that incorporate healthy veggies and are honey sweet with some crunch from the nuts. This recipe of the whole wheat no oil carrot walnut raisin bread is super moist and each slice is under 100 cal making it perfect for a snack. It is also a great alternative to pancakes in the breakfast.
