Whole Wheat Zucchini Bread image

I took an old favorite and juiced it up by cutting the white sugar completely, replacing with honey and brown sugar to reduce the total sweetener by half. I also cut the oil back to 25 percent and introduced one-third whole wheat flour. The results are in; it's even better than the original! I like to use the huge zucchini that didn't get picked on time, as long as it's still green and healthy. This is a large batch recipe, but you can easily cut it in half.

Time 1h10m

Yield 36

Number Of Ingredients 13

6 eggs, beaten
1 cup honey
1 cup packed brown sugar
½ cup canola oil
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups whole wheat flour
4 cups all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons ground cinnamon
2 teaspoons baking powder
2 teaspoons baking soda
2 teaspoons salt
4 cups grated zucchini
1 cup chopped walnuts

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease three 8x4 inch loaf pans and set aside.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, honey, brown sugar, oil and vanilla. Combine the whole wheat flour, all-purpose flour, cinnamon, baking powder, baking soda and salt; stir into the wet ingredients until moistened. Gently stir in the zucchini and walnuts until evenly distributed. Divide batter evenly between the prepared pans.
  • Bake for 50 to 60 minutes in the preheated oven, or until a knife inserted into the crown comes out clean. Cool in the pan until cool enough to touch, then turn out onto a wire rack to cool completely. Wrap in plastic wrap or store in a plastic bag when cool.

Overall, I thought this recipe was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special either.

I thought this recipe was a bit bland. I might try adding some spices next time.
