Preheat your oven to 350°F. Line a 9x5 inch loaf pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on the long sides to easily lift the bread out later.

In a high-speed blender, combine the peeled ripe bananas, rolled oats, large eggs, ground cinnamon, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and maple syrup. Blend until the mixture is completely smooth and forms a uniform batter, scraping down the sides as needed.

Transfer the blended batter to a medium bowl. Gently fold in the grated carrots and 1/2 cup of chopped walnuts until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.

Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and spread evenly. Place the loaf pan in the preheated oven.

Bake for 45-55 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean and the top is golden brown. If the top browns too quickly, you can loosely tent it with aluminum foil.

Once baked, remove the bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes before carefully lifting it out using the parchment paper overhang. Transfer the bread to a wire rack to cool completely. This will take at least 30 minutes.

While the bread is cooling, prepare the cream cheese frosting. In a medium bowl, beat together the softened cream cheese and softened unsalted butter with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy.

Gradually add the powdered sugar, beating on low speed until incorporated, then increase speed to medium and beat until light and fluffy. Stir in 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract.

Once the bread is completely cool, spread a generous layer of the cream cheese frosting evenly over the top. Sprinkle with the remaining 1/4 cup of chopped walnuts for garnish.

Slice and serve your healthy oatmeal carrot cake bread. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
