Carrot bread

I haven't done much baking lately as I recently joined Tops {lost 8 lb. so far!} But I did make some low fat carrot bread. I've used this recipe many times, but never with Carrot cake mix and I really like it. It's very simple:

Carrot Bread
1 box carrot cake mix
2 egg whites
1 can pumpkin

I usually use a chocolate cake mix..but I think this is even better. It's been hard to find canned pumpkin around here. Someone said that's because the pumpkin crops weren't good last year. I don't know if that's true or not but when my friend told me she saw some at a local grocery store again, I went and got a bunch. I often make this in cupcakes which end up being 1 WW...so they are very easy on the diet..a nice treat!

Thanks so much for this! I also make the WW muffins, but this is great for brunches!
