- 1 tsp baking soda
- ½ tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- ½ tsp salt
- ½ cup chopped walnuts
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a loaf pan.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the grated zucchini, sugar, applesauce, and eggs until well mixed. In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Fold in the walnuts, then pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan.
