My fabulous neighbor Jack, gave me a bunch of Zuchinni's as he does every year, he is sooo sweet! I decided to make my regular Zuchinni Bread recipe, but do my usual and add in a bunch of extras!
I actually made one batch and poured half into a loaf pan, then added my "extras", stirred and poured into the 2nd loaf pan. That way you can have the best of both worlds. Both breads were delish!
3 1/4 cups of all purpose flour
1 1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp ground nutmeg (fresh is best)
2 tsp baking soda
2 tsp ground cinnamon
1 cup white sugar
1 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1/2 cup applesauce
4 eggs beaten
2 cups grated Zucchini (use a towel and squeeze excess liquid out)
1 tsp fresh lemon juice
1 cup chopped nut of your choice, I used Walnuts
2 tsp honey
1 tsp vanilla
1/3 cup water
EXTRAS: 1/2 cup of chocolate chips (or whatever chips you have), 1 cup of mini marshmallows
Preheat oven to 350 degrees and grease 2 loaf pans
In a large bowl combine flour, salt, nutmeg, baking soda, cinnamon and both sugars
In a separate bowl, combine oil, applesauce, eggs, water, zucchini, honey, vanilla and lemon juice
Mix wet ingredients into dry, and fold in nuts, split between your 2 loaf pans, or do as I did and place half into a loaf pan, add your extra's, stir and pour into your 2nd loaf pan
Bake for 1 hour or until your knife comes out clean

Double WOW!
Sounds like a terrific bread! Pass a slice my way PLEASE!
Pass a slice to me with lots of butter. I am so pumped to try this Cheryl!
Looks dynamite, pass the cream cheese please.
thanks for the zucchini reminder! Love this!
Love zucchini bread..missed my garden this year.. usually I get loads more.. Yours sounds fab.. both versions.. I do a chocolate zucchini bread, but not too sweet:)
I'm ready to do some baking. It's finally cooling off enough here that I can turn on the oven. That sounds tasty.
Nice looking zucchini bread! I recently tried a chocolate zucchini bread.
Yummi is right! I like your extras and would definitely keep those in the recipe!
YUMMIZED! Love that word, and what an appropriate word for this slice of yumminess! And what an interesting idea that you suggested mini marshmallows!
I'll take a loaf! Looks yummy!
Looks tasty Cheryl. Aren't we so lucky to have Jack as our neighbor?
Your yummized bread looks delicious. It certainly is the right season for it!!
zucchinis simply belong in bread. or cake. forget savory creations, they need to be in baked goods every time!
You naughty thing ... mixing in chocolate chips AND marshmallows into your zucchini bread .. I'd be halfway thru that loaf before someone could stop me!
