For an extra touch of flavor, consider adding 1/2 cup of chopped walnuts or pecans to the batter. Squeezing excess moisture from the zucchini is crucial for preventing a soggy bread. Use a clean kitchen towel or cheesecloth. If you don't have applesauce on hand, you can substitute it with mashed banana or plain yogurt. The bread can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or in the refrigerator for up to a week.

Follow The Directions
01
StepPreheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour two 9x5-inch loaf pans to prevent sticking. (Prep time: 5 minutes)
02
StepIn a large bowl, whisk together the flour, cinnamon, salt, baking soda, baking powder, nutmeg, and allspice. This ensures even distribution of the spices. (Prep time: 3 minutes)
03
StepIn a separate bowl, beat together the sugar, applesauce, and eggs until well combined and slightly fluffy. (Prep time: 2 minutes)
04
StepGently fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can lead to a tough bread. (Prep time: 3 minutes)
05
StepFold in the grated zucchini and carrots until evenly distributed throughout the batter. (Prep time: 2 minutes)
06
StepDivide the batter evenly between the prepared loaf pans. (Prep time: 1 minute)
07
StepBake in the preheated oven for approximately 55-65 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. (Bake time: 55-65 minutes)
08
StepLet the bread cool in the pans for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely. (Cool time: 10 minutes)
