The zucchini plants are slowing down. I found two large ones hiding under the leaves and decided to make bread with them. I removed all the large seeds and pulpy center before shredding the zucchini.
Zucchini Bread
2 cups shredded zucchini
2 cups sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1/2 cup applesauce
3 eggs
1 cup chopped walnuts
3/4 cup of chocolate chips (optional)
3 cups flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon cinnamon powder
1 teaspoon ginger powder
1 teaspoon clove powder
Combine all the ingredients, mixing well.
I started lining my loaf pans with parchment paper. Removing the bread is so much easier, and cleanup too!
Bake at 350°F for 35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out dry. Enjoy!
Happy Friday, everyone!
