Wheat Zucchini & Carrot Bread

Wheat Zucchini & Carrot Bread

Recipe adapted from here. You can also add nuts to give crunchy taste. I have modified it by adding grated carrot.

Ingredients :

• 11/2 cup grated zucchini - water squeezed
• 11/2 cup grated carrot

Wet Ingredients :

• 3 eggs
• 3/4 cup olive oil
• 1/2 cup honey
• 1 tsp vanilla essence

Dry Ingredients :

• 3 cups wheat flour
• 1 tsp dried basil
• 1 tsp dried rosemary
• 1 tbsp cinnamon powder
• 11/2 tsp baking soda
• 1/4 tsp baking powder
• 1/2 tsp salt

Method :

• Sieve wheat flour and salt. Combine all dry ingredients in a mixing bowl and mix well. Keep it aside.
• Beat eggs till smooth for few mins. Add olive oil and beat it again lightly. Add honey and vanilla essence. Beat it for few mins.
• Add the wet mixture to dry ingredients and mix well. Add grated carrot & zucchini in between while mixing.
• Preheat oven to 190 degrees C for 10 mins. Grease the bread/loaf pan with little oil. Pour batter into the pan.
• Keep it in the middle rack and bake for 40 mins. Insert a toothpick at the center of the loaf. It should come clean.
• Take out the bread from the pan and let it cool on the rack for 15 mins. Serve it immediately or keep it refrigerated.
