Step 1
Start by heating your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking dish so nothing sticks. In a large bowl, mix together the flour, brown sugar, raisins, coconut, wheat germ, wheat bran, cinnamon, baking soda, and salt. In another bowl, whisk the vegetable oil with the eggs until well combined. Then, add the wet ingredients along with the grated carrots and beets into the dry mixture. Stir everything just until it’s combined—don’t overmix. Pour the batter into your prepared dish and pop it in the oven. Bake for about an hour, or until the center feels springy when you gently press it. Let it cool a bit before slicing and serving.
