Zuchinni Bread. To import, drag image to your MacGourmet recipe box.
Directions
Preheat oven to 325. In a large mixing bowl, combine dry ingredients. Add
raisins, and nuts if desired. Make a well in center.
Stir in vanilla, soymilk and applesauce. Fold in zucchini.
Add wet ingredients to dry ingredients; stir just until well blended. Pour
batter into oiled 9-by-5-by-3" loaf pan. Bake for 60-70 mins, or until tester
inserted in center comes out clean. Cool 10 mins in pan. Invert onto serving
plate; cool completely before slicing. Makes 16 slices.
NOTE: I do not bake this, or most, quick breads in loaf pans, but in regular
shallow glass pans. This cuts down the cooking time, and I also find they
cook more thoroughly and reliably. If baking in a shallow pan, bake at 350
for about 25 minutes.
