This loaf smelled amazing while it was baking, and the little tropical twist was such a nice change from regular carrot cake. I loved the bits of pineapple throughout. Definitely something I’d bake again to share with friends or bring to brunch.
I think I need to stop reading food blogs when I am on a diet. That looks incredible, I really need to try it
Thanks Kimberly! Luckily this recipe is pretty healthy so you can have a slice even if your on a diet 🙂
This looks so so so good. 🙂 I just need to find spelt flour now!
Thanks Cat! You can always substitute for regular flour or whole wheat too. Many bulk stores will carry spelt flour, or you can even find some on Amazon!
