WHOLE-GRAIN ZUCCHINI BANANA BREAD
This is adapted from a recipe I found in a pregnancy book. It is WONDERFUL! It's good hot, cold or room temperature. It's good plain or with butter. The original recipe doesn't use any sugar but I didn't think I'd like it without it.

100% WHOLE WHEAT ZUCCHINI BREAD
This is a zucchini bread made only with whole wheat flour, I'm sure you could make it 1/2 with whole wheat flour and 1/2 with all purpose. It is really easy and delicious! It turns out quite sweet with 1 1/2 cups of sugar so if you're trying to cut back on sugar I think only 1 cup would be enough --> this recipe makes 2 loaves

Steps:
- Mix sugar, oil, eggs, grated zucchini and vanilla in a large bowl.
- In a separate bowl sift whole wheat flour, salt, baking soda, cinnamon and baking powder.
- Add dry ingredients to wet, stirring to combine well.
- Add chopped nuts.
- Bake at 350°F for 45/50 minutes.
Tips:
- Use ripe bananas: The riper the bananas, the sweeter and more flavorful your bread will be.
- Measure your flour correctly: To ensure accurate measurements, use a kitchen scale to weigh your flour. Alternatively, fluff your flour with a spoon before spooning it into the measuring cup.
- Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will result in a tough, dense loaf of bread. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Bake the bread at the right temperature: The ideal oven temperature for baking zucchini banana bread is 350°F (175°C). A lower temperature will result in a denser loaf, while a higher temperature will cause the bread to overcook.
- Check the bread for doneness: Insert a toothpick into the center of the loaf. If it comes out clean, the bread is done. If it comes out with batter or crumbs attached, bake the bread for a few more minutes.
Conclusion:
Whole grain zucchini banana bread is a delicious and nutritious snack or breakfast option. It's easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With its combination of whole grains, zucchini, and bananas, this bread is a great source of fiber, vitamins, and minerals. So next time you're looking for a healthy and satisfying snack, give whole grain zucchini banana bread a try!
