Time 1h30m

Number Of Ingredients 18

3 c all-purpose flour or unbleached all purpose flour
2 tsp baking soda
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp salt
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1 tsp pumpkin pie spice
3 large eggs
1/2 c vegetable oil
1/2 c unsweetened applesauce
1 c white sugar
1 c light brown sugar
1/2 c sour cream or light sour cream
2 tsp vanilla extract
2 c grated zucchini (leave peel on)
1-2 (8 oz.) can crushed pineapple, well drained
1 medium bananas, mashed (optional)
3/4 c shredded coconut
2/3 c salted, roasted macadamia nuts, or walnuts rough chopped, (optional)

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Lightly grease two 9 x 5 in. loaf pans.
  • 2. If using nuts, chop them & toss with some flour, so that they won't sink to the bottom of the bread; set aside.
  • 3. Stir together flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, and pumpkin pie spice, in a bowl, until well blended; set aside.
  • 4. Whisk together eggs, oil, applesauce and sugars, in a large bowl. Stir in sour cream, vanilla, zucchini, pineapple, coconut, and banana, if using, until well mixed.
  • 5. Stir flour mixture in to wet ingredients, mixing, just until moistened. Fold in nuts, if using. Divide batter between prepared loaf pans.
  • 6. Bake, until bread tests clean with a toothpick or knife, in center--about 50-60 minutes. Cool in pans for 10 minutes, then remove, and finish cooling on wire racks. Makes 2 loaves--12 servings per loaf.
