Ingredients
- 1 3/4 cups unbleached flour
- 1 tsp. baking powder
- 1/2 tsp. baking soda
- 1/2 tsp. salt
- 1 tsp. cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp. ground ginger
- 2 eggs
- 1/2 cup canola oil or applesauce
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1 tsp. vanilla
- 3/4 cup packed brown sugar
- 3/4 cup shredded carrot
- 1 cup grated zucchini
- 1/2 cup chopped walnuts
Preparation
Step 1
Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Grease and flour one loaf pan. In medium bowl stir together flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and ginger. In large bowl, mix eggs, oil, honey, and vanilla, blending well; then add brown sugar and blend well. Gradually add flour mixture from medium bowl into the egg mixture, mixing well. Stir carrot, zucchini, and walnuts into the batter; mix until well combined. Pour batter into the greased and floured loaf pan. Bake 50-55 minutes, or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Let cool in pan about 15-20 minutes before removing; then completely cool before adding frosting, if desired.
***The recipe says to make it in TWO 8x4 loaf pans, but I only used ONE 9x5 and it was absolutely perfect.
