Makes 15 servings

Reduced Calorie, Reduced-Sugar Breads :). Enjoy them with your family!! :D

Ingredients
3 cups Whole Wheat Flour
1 tbs Baking Powder
1 tsp Baking Soda
1 tbs Vanilla
1 package Yeast
4 tbs Cinnamon
1/2 cup
4 Egg Whites
1/2 cup
1/2 cup Splenda Brown Sugar
1/2 cup Splenda
1 cup Raisins
2 Carrots
Directions
  1. Mix together the wet & dry ingredients in separate bowls. Allow the yeast packet to dissolve in warm water for about 5-10 mins. Mix in with the flour first, then add wet ingredients and layer wet and dry. Mix well & add raisins & Carrots (I like to put the carrots in a food processor until it's nearly pulpy but you can do this however you like). Mix well.

  2. Preheat the oven to 350.

  3. Knead the bread on a floured countertop for 3 mins (NO MORE!! Over kneading will leave you with a stiff bread!)

  4. Place in a bowl and cover to let rise for 45-60 mins

  5. Punch down

  6. Roll out flat & thin like you're making cookies

  7. Sprinkle with cinnamon, brown sugar and/or extra raisins

  8. Cut the dough in two pieces

  9. Roll up each piece into a long tube

  10. Tuck the sides under and plop it in the bread pan (I like glass pans sprayed with PAM)

  11. Let it rise for another 15-20 mins in the pan

  12. Bake it for 45-60 mins :)

  13. The last 20 minutes you can brush the top of the loaf with butter, orange juice, carrot juice, egg wash, and/or brown sugar/cinnamon blend for a nice top depending on the type of loaf you are going for.

  14. Voila!
