Recipe
1. Preheat the oven to 375�F. Lightly coat two 8-inch loaf pans with cooking spray.
2. In a large bowl, beat the eggs; add the oil, DiabetiSweet, vanilla, pineapple, and zucchini.
3. In a second large bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt (if using). If using, add the walnuts and toss.
4. Mix the dry ingredients into the egg mixture until just combined. Spoon into the prepared loaf pans.
5. Bake for 40 minutes or until a tester inserted near the middle comes out clean. Cool in pan for 5 minutes, then turn out and cool on wire racks.
