- To make the dough in a bread maker, put all of the ingredients into the bread machine in the order listed, and set the machine to create dough. When the machine finishes, roll out the dough on a lightly floured work surface. Divide the dough into four even portions. Round up, cover with plastic wrap, and allow to rest for 10 minutes. Line two loaf pans with parchment paper.
- Sealing side down roll each dough out to match the length of your baking pan. Turn the dough over and roll it up. Seal the ends closely. Place them seam-side down into the pans, each pan with two loaves. Cover and let rise until almost doubled, about 30 minutes.
- While the bread ferments, we start to make the cake by beating the oil, carrot juice and vanilla sugar until creamy and emulsified. Sift in the flour and stir until just combined. Add in egg yolks and mix completely.
- Whip the egg whites, salt and lemon juice until soft peaks form. Beat in the sugar and beat until stiff peaks form. Gently fold 1/3 of the whites into the batter to lighten it, and then fold in the rest of the whites. Pour the cake batter over the bread. Sprinkle some coconut flakes over and bake in a preheated 165C/330F oven for about 45-60 minutes. After baking, immediately tear off the baking paper to avoid the cake shrinking too much.

Angie, your recipes are truly amazing! I see loaves like this in the bread shops here so often but they seem so intricate and difficult to do. I've saved your recipe and I will definitely be trying this. Thanks for sharing your expertise :)

Angie you have been very busy baking! Send some over please!
Soft and delicious...

This looks great! The carrot chiffon is interesting. I'm not usually a big fan of carrots, but in this application they seem really interesting.
Trust you Angie for coming up with such a fabulous creation!
This looks so very amazing Angie - Especially with the swirls and the color variation. Very impressive and super texture and airy too!
Can't have enough recipes with strawberries but in a bread is genius.

I can imagine the textures of the bread and chiffon when I bite into this loaf. Your creativity never ceases to amaze me.
This is gorgeous Angie! I love this technique you have been using with bread and cake. So unique and beautiful. I bet it's a joy to eat.
This sounds so delicious, and the cut slice looks amazing!

What an interesting bread! I love the visual effect, and the flavours sound great too!
When I read Carrot Chiffon I thought it was going to be a separate, meringue top topping. WOW, was I surprised and how gorgeous is that! I want to make it right now!
This looks so light and lovely. I love the consistency which looks somewhere between bread and cake.

How gorgeous this loaf is? I absolutely adore the two colors and layers, and of course the flavor of strawberries makes it very unique, I wish I could taste one slice!
You bake the most divine breads. What a pretty loaf!
I officially crown you the Queen of Bread Baking! :) Another fantastic recipe!
Dear Angie, I join the chorus of those delighted with your tremendous recipes.
As for the Strawberry Tea Loaf I'd like to clear up: did you just used the contents of the teabags in the dough or did you make tea and afterwards used it for the dough?
Thanks.
yummm!!!! looking greatt!! love the colours :) angie ye a such a greta cook!! :)
cheers!!
zalevchik: I used the contents of the teabags.
I cannot BELIEVE how gorgeous this bread is. It is AMAZING! How do you come up with these things? I'm afraid to try this as my bread making skills are seriously lacking. I made a bread not too long ago and it came out as hard as a rock. Terrible. I'll just have to pretend that I actually tasted your delicious bread!
Beautiful texture on this tea bread, and I love the 2-toned color; it adds so much eye appeal and makes me want to have a nice slice of this delicious bread. Well done. You are such a gifted baker. I love to see what you're cooking.
This is the most delicious looking cake I have seen in a LONG time.
Admire you Angie that you are so good in baking different types of bread.
