Zucchini Bread

Zucchini Bread

Ingredients




  • 3 cups all-purpose flour



  • 1 tsp salt



  • 1 tsp baking soda



  • 1 tsp baking powder



  • 3 tsp ground cinnamon



  • 3 eggs



  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil



  • 1/2 cup applesauce



  • 1 cup white sugar



  • 1 cup brown sugar



  • 3 tsp vanilla extract



  • 2 cups grated zucchini



  • 1 cup chopped walnuts


Directions



  1. Grease and flour two 8 x 4 inch bread pans. Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.



  2. Sift flour, salt, baking powder, soda, and cinnamon together in a bowl.



  3. Beat eggs, oil, applesauce, vanilla, and sugars together in a large bowl. Add sifted ingredients to the creamed mixture, and beat well. Stir in zucchini and nuts until well combined.



  4. Pour batter into prepared pans.



  5. Bake for 40 to 60 minutes, or until tester inserted in the center comes out clean.



  6. Cool in pan on rack for 20 minutes. Remove bread from pan, and completely cool.


My first attempt at this i didn't have any nuts so I put in chocolate chips. It didn't work out the best :( they made my bread stick to the bottom of the pan and so it didn't come out very clean. next time I will use the walnuts.


This bread came out moist and so yummy :) This is a great way to use up some of that huge supply of zucchini everyone has sitting around their house!


I will post pics of it later :)
