Rainbow carrot cake

I bought a pack of rainbow carrots before the holidays and didn't manage to cook them. On New Year's Day, I decided I'd better use them up before they went off, so I turned to an all-time favourite - carrot cake.

Courgette loaf (1)

This is a recipe I adapted from Rachel Allen. I saw her making this bread a few years ago on TV and was instantly intrigued by the idea of pairing courgette with sweetness rather than the usual savoury (I love it sliced, grilled, and sprinkled with a little bit of sea salt).
