Ingredients

• 2 cups Whole wheat flour
• 1.5 teaspoons Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoons Baking soda
• 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 2 large Eggs
• 0.5 cups Unsweetened applesauce
• 0.5 cups Honey or maple syrup
• 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 2 cups Shredded zucchini (excess moisture squeezed out)
• 0.5 cups Chopped walnuts or pecans (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour an 8x4-inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, baking powder, baking soda, ground cinnamon, and salt. Set aside.

Step 3

In another bowl, beat the eggs, unsweetened applesauce, honey or maple syrup, and vanilla extract until well combined.

Step 4

Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.

Step 5

Fold in the shredded zucchini and chopped nuts (if using) until evenly incorporated.

Step 6

Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and spread it out evenly.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the bread comes out clean.

Step 8

Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing and serving.
