Mom's Carrot Mold
The recipe for Mom's Carrot Mold is an old-fashioned recipe that has been in the family for years. This traditional carrot mold makes a delicious and easy side dish for the holidays. It looks like a cake with the texture of a bread. It is savory, with a touch of sweetness from the brown sugar. Making this carrot mold is rather simple. There are just 10 ingredients and only a few short steps. All you have to do is mix the dry ingredients with the wet and pour into a ring-shaped mold. Then, bake for an hour and serve warm. It tastes great alongside a Thanksgiving turkey or a Christmas Eve roast.

This carrot ring was almost like carrot cake. It was incredibly moist and so tasty! I would serve it as dessert or a side dish.

Please do not grate the carrots by hand-use a cuisinart! It is so much faster!
