Ingredients:

• 1.5 cups – whole-wheat flour
• 1.5 cups – all-purpose flour
• 1 tsp – baking soda
• 1.5 tsp – baking powder
• 1/2 tsp – salt
• 3 tsp – powdered Cinnamon and cloves. You can also use one or the other.
• 1 cup – lightly toasted and chopped Pecans or Walnuts
• Mix the ingredients together and set aside.
• In another bowl, mix together:
• 3 tbsp – flax meal and 9 tbsp water
• Add and mix:
• 4 tbsp – canola or other vegetable oil
• 2 cups – Sugar
• Then whisk in:
• 3/4 cup – applesauce
• 1 tbsp – vanilla extract
• 2.5 cups – grated Zucchini (about two small to medium Zucchini)

Method:

1. Now add the wet mixture to the dry, whisking it in 1/3rd of the flour at a time, until well mixed.
2. Do not overmix because you don’t want to develop the gluten in the flour.
3. Grease and flour two standard-size loaf pans.
4. Divide the batter equally between the two and smooth down the top.
5. Bake in a preheated 325 degree oven 60-70 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the centre comes out clean.
6. Cool on a rack about 15 minutes, then slide a knife around the edges to unmold. Place right-side-up on a rack to cool.
