Peter and Cathy's "Grate" Zucchini Bread



Mix dry ingredients:
¾ cup whole wheat flour
¾ cup white flour
½ cup sugar
1 tsp baking powder
½ tsp baking soda
¼ tsp salt
1 tsp cinnamon
¼ fresh ground nutmeg
¼ tsp cloves

Mix wet ingredients:
2 eggs
3/8 cup (6 Tbls) oil
1¼ cups packed grated zucchini
1 tsp vanilla

Mix dry and wet ingredients together. Butter one bread pan. Pour in mixture and bake on 350° F oven for 50-60 minutes (until you can prick a knife in the center of the loaf and have it come out clean).

Extra goodies to add:
1. In the 1st loaf we added to the general recipe some chopped walnuts, half a banana, and some chocolate chips. It tasted like CANDY!
2. In another loaf we added some ground cardamom, half a banana, some sunflower seeds, and a touch of maple syrup. Also incredibly delicious!
3. Something to try: replacing some of the flour with flax meal.
