-Yummy Zucchini Bread-

3 cups flour

2 cups sugar

1 t. each salt, baking soda, nutmeg

1/2 t. cinnamon

1/4 t. baking powder

3 eggs

1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce

1/2 cup oil

1 T. orange zest

2 t. vanilla

2 c. shredded zucchini

1 c. chopped walnuts(optional...I don't use them because I'm not a nut fan)

1 c. chocolate chips(I did half milk and half semi sweet. Also it might be a good idea to use the mini chocolate chips so they don't all fall to the botton of the pan. )

Combine the dry ingredients in one bowl and the wet ingredients in another bowl. Fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, then pour into two greased 8x4 loaf pans. Bake at 350 for 55-60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean. Allow to cool on a wire rack for 10 minutes then remove from pans and cool the rest of the way.
