Zucchini Bread!!!

I have finally found a zucchini bread recipe that I love!

(The kids love it, too)

This morning as I was "getting ready for the day",

I heard silence... dead silence.

Now, if you have a two year old, you know this means only one thing:

T-R-O-U-B-L-E!

I found Hayden sitting on the couch with 1/2 my loaf of zucchini bread.

He had taken it out of the bag and cut it with a butter knife.

(AND he ate it all, too!)

Here's the recipe:

6 eggs

1-2 cup sugar

1 T. vanilla extract

3 shredded granny apples, cored-unpeeled

3 shredded zucchini, unpeeled

6 c. flour

(if you use all-wheat, add 1 tbsp vinegar)

2 t. baking soda

1 t. baking powder

2 t. salt

1 t. pumpkin pie spice

2 t. cinnamon

2/3 package of Mini Chocolate Chips

Mix together eggs, sugar, vanilla,  (and vinegar). 

Add zucchini and apples.  Mix well.

Sift in 3 c. flour. Mix it up!

In another bowl:

Blend remaining flour, baking powder and soda, salt, spices.

Sift this mixture into zucchini/apples.

Add in Chocolate Chips.

Pour into muffin tins (Bake 35 min)

or into loaf pans (Bake for 55 min-turning after 30 min).

Let cool before slicing or you'll get chocolate all over.
