There’s enough veggies in here to keep this bread moist without adding extra butter or oil! I love making this end of fall season when I have a lot of these ingredients and kind of sick of eating them!
This was a cooking light recipe that I cut the sugar even more from! I made it a few times and to get desired consistency I added some more fruit and veggie and less oil to also further cut the calories. I think I got it right and I think that you’ll agree!

1c all purpose flour
1 tbsp cinnamon
1/4tsp salt
1 tsp baking soda
2 cups of grated apple, carrot and zucchini
1/4c chopped walnuts, toasted
2 tbsp canola oil

2 eggs
1/4c brown sugar
Directions:
Mix the first four ingredients together, set aside
Mix oil, buttermilk,eggs,sugar together, set aside

Nutrition tip: this beats other recipes with calories BY FAR. A typical piece of zucchini bread this size is around 220kcal if it’s homemade and not store bought! So almost half the amount of calories.
This doesn’t mean eat more, it means eat the same and have less empty calories roaming around your body! 🤔
