Introduction
I never cared for zucchini bread, so I played with a recipe until I got what I wanted. It has a nice moist texture and a deliciously rich flavor. It's great spread with cream cheese for breakfast. This is one of the breads I make at Christmas as gifts, baked in small foil pans.
Ingredients

2 cups shredded zucchini (about 3 medium zucchini)
2 cups all_purpose_flour
1/2 cup whole_wheat_flour
1 cup granulated_sugar
1 tsp salt
1 tsp baking_soda
2 tsp cinnamon
2 tsp vanilla
1/2 tsp baking_powder
3 eggs
3/4 cup applesauce
1/4 cup vegetable_oil
1/3 cup molasses
1 cup chopped nuts
1 cup chopped raisins (process nuts and raisins together in food processor for best results)

 

Directions
Step: 1

Grate zucchini and place in a colander lined  with paper towels to drain off excess moisture.
In a large bowl combine eggs, oil, sugar, molasses and vanilla and beat with an electric mixer on high speed until thick and foamy. Beat in applesauce. Combine dry ingredients and stir to blend well. Add dry ingredients to egg mixture and stir just until blended. Add zucchini, nuts and raisins and blend gently. Pour batter into 2 greased and floured 5X9 loaf pans. Bake at 350 F for 1 hour or until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean.
let bread cool slightly in pans and then turn out on racks to finish cooling, covered with a clean tea towel.
Store breads in an airtight container.
This bread keeps up to 2 weeks if stored in the fridge.
