Zucchini Bread

Image
I love zucchini bread. But it usually has a ton of butter and a ton of sugar. So I experimented a bit. This still has sugar but a lot less than my normal loaf AND it was super moist!  This makes two 9x5 loaf pans.  Recipe: 4 cups shredded zucchini, about 2.5 regular sized zucchini  2 smashed bananas 1 cup applesauce  1/2 cup maple syrup 3/4 cup honey 2 tsp pure vanilla extract 4 cups whole wheat flour Cooking spray 1 tsp salt 4 tsp cinnamon  2 tsp baking soda 4 tsp baking powder 1/2 bag chocolate chips 1/2 cup chopped walnuts, optional  Preheat oven to 350.  Line 2 9x5 loaf pans with parchment paper. Spray with cooking spray. Set aside.  Shred the zucchini. Set aside.  In a large bowl combine the banana, syrup, honey, applesauce, and vanilla.  Stir in the shredded zucchini.  In a separate bowl combine the flour, salt, cinnamon, baking soda, baking powder. If it seems really dry, add in small amounts of milk ( I used almondmilk). Do not overmix, but add enough so that it seems “wet.” Di
