  • 1 1/2 cup wholewheat flour
  • 4 large eggs
  • 2 cups freshly grated zucchini and/or carrots
  • 1 cup Butter Olive Oil

  • 2 teaspoons dry ground ginger
  • 2 teaspoons cinnamon

Directions:

Preheat the oven to 350 F.

Grease two standard loaf pans, or one 9″x13″ pan.

Whisk the oil, molasses, sugars, eggs, and zucchini in a large bowl.  Whisk together the dry ingredients in a separate bowl. Add the dry to the wet ingredients and mix just until no dry spots of flour remain.
