Carrot bread for a cozy Easter brunch – that sounds delicious! You can bake the simple bread recipe for this healthy bread with your children.
After Carnival comes Easter, right? 😉 When I think of Easter, I see a colorfully laid table with sweet and savory treats waiting to be devoured by the whole family. A real Easter brunch! In recent years, my kids and I have conjured up many sweet treats for the family Easter brunch - our marbled mini Cakes or the cuddling lemon bunnies. Our Torrijas have become a beloved Easter tradition since the dear Spaniard came into my life.
This year my kids and I are baking a moist carrot bread for Easter brunch - or better yet - lots of mini carrot breads! Because we have tried the new mini loaf tins* from RBV Birkmann . This healthy bread is not only delicious, but easy to bake with the kids!
Is your yeast dough not rising or sticking to your fingers?
Then I can reassure you: you are not alone! Many people have the same issues and it was the same for me for a long time!
After many experiments and a lot of testing, my yeast doughs now usually rise! With my tips & tricks for baking with yeast dough your baking with yeast will also be a pleasure and your yeast dough will rise!
Have fun baking!
If you also fancy carrot bread for your Easter brunch, here is the recipe for you:
Carrot bread recipe
This carrot bread is not only a healthy bread, but also an easy bread recipe that you can bake easily with your kids. My kids are very motivated to roll up their sleeves just when they hear that they can knead the dough - they love it! I have found that children really enjoy the tactile sensation when baking and complete tasks such as kneading or rolling dough with particular enthusiasm. Your minis will definitely have a lot of fun kneading too!
Ingredients for carrot bread
(for one carrot loaf or 8 mini carrot loaves)
Yeast dough
- 500 g spelled flour (flour type 1050)
- 100 g tender oat flakes
- 100g chia seeds
- 7 g dry yeast (1 packet)
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 300 ml handwarm water
- 200 g grated carrots
- 100 g natural yogurt
Baking accessories

“Hoppy Easter greetings” – Chocolate Easter chocolates
Do you need a cute little something for your Easter mail? Or would you like to decorate your Easter table with chocolate treats this year?
Then these cute wrappers for your little Easter chocolates are just the thing! These creatively designed Easter chocolates fit perfectly in the mail and add that special something to any Easter nest!
Preparation
- First, you and your mini mix the dry ingredients – flour, oat flakes, chia seeds, dry yeast and salt – in a mixing bowl.
- The handwarm water is then added and the yeast dough is kneaded well for our healthy bread.
- In the next step, the natural yogurt and grated carrots are added and everything is kneaded together.
- Now the yeast dough is covered with a kitchen towel and allowed to rise in a warm place for 45-60 minutes.
- After the yeast dough has “grown”, set the oven to 180°C top/bottom heat and briefly knead the yeast dough again.
- Next, the kneaded yeast dough is placed in a greased baking pan. We have used the mini loaf pan from RBV Birkmann . Of course, you can also bake a large loaf of bread in a loaf pan for your Easter brunch.
- Now the mini breads are baked in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes. If you decide to bake a large loaf of carrot bread in a loaf pan, the bread will need to bake longer (approx. 55-60 minutes). To prevent the carrot bread from becoming too dry while baking, place a bowl of water on the bottom of the oven during the baking process.
- When the bread for Easter brunch is finished baking, let it cool on the cooling rack and our healthy bread is ready for Easter brunch!
For your Easter break, I can only recommend that you try this healthy Easter bread with creamy cream cheese or a velvety jam - it tastes heavenly!
My kids and I wish you and your kids lots of fun baking and a delicious Easter break! 😉
Yours, Lia
