Mimi's Carrot Bread, YUM

This isn't actually the original recipe but a copy cat version to which I have made some modifications, and have here. I am actually going to keep working with this one to make it a little healthier but for now this is pretty close to the original and very yummy.
Carrot Raisin Bread

1 ½ c. flour, sifted
1 t. cinnamon
1 t. baking powder
1 t. baking soda
1 t. salt
1 c. vegetable oil
1 c. granulated sugar
3 eggs
¼ c. molasses
½ t. vanilla extract
1 c. shredded carrot
½ c. golden raisins
¼- ½ c. chopped walnuts

Preheat oven to 350. Combine flour, cinnamon, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a large mixing bowl. In another bowl combine oil, sugar, eggs, molasses and vanilla mix well;
add carrot. Gently fold in the raisins and walnuts and then the flour mixture, until well mixed but don’t over stir. Pour into two greased medium loaf pans. Bake for 60 mins, but check after 45-50 mins.
