Recipe
Preheat oven to 350° F. Lightly grease and flour six (6 x 2½-inch) mini loaf pans.
In a large bowl, beat butter and sugar at medium speed with an electric mixer until creamy. Beat in eggs and vanilla until fluffy. In a medium bowl, combine flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add to butter mixture, beating just until combined. Stir in sour cream, grated carrot, crushed pineapple, and pecans.
Spoon batter into prepared pans, and bake for 28 to 30 minutes, or until a wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean. Let cool completely on wire racks. Serve with Spiced Butter, if desired.
Makes 6 mini loaves.
