Recipe Description

A little twist to the usual zucchini bread. If you love making and canning apple pie filling or apple rings, this is another way of using your own homemade goodies.

Preparation Instructions

1) Preheat oven to 350F. Generously grease the bottom and sides of a 9″ loaf pan.
2) In a large bowl, mix canola oil, sugar, eggs and vanilla. Mix well. Stir in shredded zucchini and apple.
3) In a medium bowl, mix flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, ground cloves, nutmeg and salt. Add to zucchini mixture.
4) Fold in chopped nuts, if desired.
5) Pour into prepared loaf pan and bake for 45-50 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Remove from oven and cool.

Ingredients

½ cups Canola Oil Or Melted Butter
¾ cups Sugar
2 whole Eggs
1 teaspoon Vanilla
1 cup Zucchini, Shredded
½ cups Homemade Apple Pie Filling Or Chopped Apple
1-½ cup All-purpose Flour
¾ teaspoons Baking Soda
¼ teaspoons Baking Powder
½ teaspoons Cinnamon
¼ teaspoons Ground Cloves
¼ teaspoons Nutmeg
½ teaspoons Salt
½ cups Chopped Nuts (optional)

Really good and easy! It only took one medium zucchini to make one cup shredded. I put the shredded zucchini on a napkin to help absorb the moisture before adding it to the mixture. The apple adds a nice flavor. I highly recommend this recipe.

Just made this bread after my sister-in-law (Shana) recommended it, and it is amazingly good! I cut myself a slice to try it and ended up having three! Time to put it away before I eat the whole thing!! I love how quick and easy this was to throw together! Even my sweet son James loves it, now I have a way to get him some extra fruit and veggies!

Hello Marie, so glad you gave it a try. It is very addicting, hubby usually can’t even wait for it to cool.
These can also be made into jumbo muffins, only takes 25-30mins for the muffins. Great to bring along for a picnic or road trips.
