Zucchini Banana Bread


Zucchini Banana Bread
Moisture in this zucchini bread comes from banana rather than a lot of oil. I bet applesauce would work too.

Ingredients
  1. 1/3 cup butter at room temperature

  4. 1 cup (two large) very ripe bananas
  5. 1 cup grated zucchini with moisture squeezed out
  6. 1 Tbl vanilla
  7. 1 3/4 cups flour

  10. 1/2 tsp salt
  11. 1/2 cup chopped nuts

  3. Cream butter and sugar until smooth.
  4. Add eggs until blended.
  5. Add banana in chunks.
  6. Add zucchini and vanilla.
  7. In separate bowl, mix dry ingredients and mix until blended. Don't overmix.

Notes
  1. This bread freezes well when wrapped in foil and placed in plastic bag--if you don't eat it all first.
