Ingredients

• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 cup white sugar
• 1 cup packed brown sugar
• 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 1 cup unsweetened applesauce
• 3 cups all-purpose flour

• 3 tablespoons flax seeds
• 0.5 teaspoon baking powder
• 0.75 cup vegetable oil
• 2.5 cups shredded zucchini
• 0.5 teaspoon arrowroot powder

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Grease and flour two 9x5-inch loaf pans.

Step 2

Whisk flour, flax seeds, cinnamon, salt, baking soda, baking powder, and arrowroot together in a bowl until evenly blended; set aside.

Step 3

Whisk applesauce, white sugar, brown sugar, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract in a separate bowl until smooth; fold in flour mixture and shredded zucchini until moistened. Divide batter between the prepared loaf pans.

Step 4

Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 70 minutes. Cool briefly in the pans before removing to cool completely on a wire rack.
