I grew up eating really healthy food. We ate whole grains and I wasn't allowed to eat tasty things like white bread, Cheez whiz or sugary cereals because they were 'junk food'. Dessert was a very rare treat. My Mom regularly shopped at health food stores, which in the 1970's, was a pretty hippyish thing to do. Hence the reason she was deemed a 'health nut' by the other neighborhood mothers. So when, in Grade 3 health class, when we were asked to record what we had for breakfast one random day, you can only imagine my mother's mortification when I came home with my food chart and under the breakfast category it read, CAKE.

Mom claims that it was more like a rhubarb loaf, not a cake, and at the time thought, 'How bad can it be? Rhubarb is a vegetable after all. But I guess it seemed like cake to me! I relate to how my Mom felt when I had a similar thing happen to me with my daughter over Christmas...
The extra sugar and calories are just not necessary. So, if you want a healthy carrot bread that tastes like you are eating cake for breakfast, but without the fat and sugar, then give this one a try!

And although I am really all about treating myself and eating cake, I just can't bring myself to do cake for breakfast! All that sugar just sends me right up, then crashing right down again.... hard. And it just seems all wrong - like having a beer for breakfast. I'd rather leave the cake (and beer) for PM indulgences.

**Optional:You can add a ½ cup finely chopped pineapple (fresh or canned). Just make sure you squeeze out the liquid. It's a really nice addition and makes for a moist bread.

While we were visiting some relatives over Christmas, for some odd reason, someone asked my daughter what she had for breakfast that day and she replied, popcorn and a slushy. I can assure you that was not one of my proudest parenting moments. Although I wasn't even in charge of eating that morning (my Mom was), I couldn't very well throw Grandma under the bus. Plus, I know that my daughter had slept really late, they were in a rush to get to the noon movie, my daughter will do just about anything to avoid a healthy breakfast. It was easy to fly under the radar when Grandma had 4 kids to wrangle on her own. So, I ending up wearing that one.

Quick breads actually encompass a whole category of baked goods that are leavened with “chemical” leaveners, that includes bundts, muffins and other shapes, but today I am focusing just on healthy quick bread loafs.
