Add Carrots and Nuts: Fold in the grated carrots and chopped nuts (if using). This adds texture and sweetness to the bread.

Fill Loaf Pans: Divide the batter evenly between the two prepared loaf pans. Smooth out the tops with a spatula for even baking.

Cool: Once baked, remove the carrot bread from the oven and allow it to cool in the pans for about 10 minutes. Then, carefully transfer the loaves to a wire rack to cool completely.
