1/2 cup sugar
1 cup brown sugar
3 eggs
1/2 cup oil
1/2 cup applesauce
2 cups grated zucchini
3 teaspoons vanilla
Combine the above ingredients in a bowl and mix well.
2 cups white flour
1 cup wheat flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
3 teaspoons cinnamon
Sift the ingredients together and add to the zucchini mixture. Blend well.
Add 1/2 cup nuts and/or 1/2 cups chocolate chips if desired.
Bake in two lightly greased bread pans at 350F for 1 hour or until a toothpick or knife inserted in the center comes out clean. Be sure not to overbake. Cool on a wire rack for a few minutes, then remove the loaves. Slice and serve warm or freeze for later use. Better yet, make new friends and share!
Enjoy!
