Variations: For carrot bread, substitute 2 cups grated carrots for the
zucchini and raisens for the nuts.
To make carrot-zucchini bread, use 1 cup grated carrot and 1 cup grated
zucchini.
My notes: **I used sweetened applesauce (which I will do again in future)
and I did use pecans. I split the batter into 2 smaller pans and still the
outside cooked fast and the inside seemed underdone (I should note that I
took the bread out of the oven at 55 minutes -- instead of the full 60, but
the outside looked over done so I decided to risk it. Next time I will just
let it go the full time, I guess.) The flavor is fantastic...not horribly
sweet or cloying. The interior moistness lessened by the next day. I like
this recipe enough to make it again.
