1/2 cup whole wheat flour
1/2 cup sugar
1-1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 cup packed shredded peeled zucchini

1/2 cup fat-free milk
1/3 cup canola or corn oil
2 large eggs, or 1/2 cup egg substitute



Recipe

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Prepare a 9x5-inch loaf pan with nonstick pan spray.
Combine the flours, sugar, baking powder, salt, and baking soda in a large bowl. Stir in zucchini, walnuts, lemon zest, and cinnamon.
Combine the milk, oil, and eggs; add to the dry ingredients and mix until the dry ingredients are moistened. Spread evenly in the prepared pan.
Bake 50 to 60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Let the bread stand in the pan for 5 minutes; turn the loaf out onto a wire cooling rack. When cool, cut in 18 slices.
