Posted on 22. Jun, 2009 by admin in Zucchini Bread

“These mild orange-flavored loaves are chock-full of chocolate chips, nuts and spices. The bread is easy to stir up, yet it tastes like you spent hours in the kitchen.”

INGREDIENTS

* 3 cups all-purpose flour
* 2 cups sugar
* 1 teaspoon baking soda
* 1 teaspoon salt
* 1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
* 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
* 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
* 3 eggs
* 1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce
* 1/2 cup vegetable oil
* 1 tablespoon grated orange peel
* 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
* 2 cups shredded zucchini
* 1 cup chopped walnuts
* 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips

DIRECTIONS

1. In a large bowl, combine the first seven ingredients.
2. In another bowl, beat eggs, applesauce, oil, orange peel and vanilla. Stir into the dry ingredients just until moistened. Fold in zucchini, nuts and chocolate chips. Divide batter between two greased 9-in. x 5-in. x 3-in. loaf pans.
3. Bake at 350 degrees for 55-60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool for 10 minutes before removing from pans to wire racks to cool completely.
