Preheat oven to 180°C.

Grate the carrot and zucchini in a large bowl.

Add the mashed banana, cranberries and chopped walnuts.

Add the eggs, sugar, oil, spices and salt and mix until evenly combined.

Fold through the sifted flour and bi-carb soda until the flour is just combined

(Don’t over mix the ingredients as it makes a heavy loaf).

Add to your greased loaf pan and cook for approx. 1 hour and 10 minutes.

The top can brown and burn quite quickly so keep an eye on it and turn the oven down or put foil over the loaf.
