Ingredients

  • 1-1/2 cup All-purpose Flour
  • 1-1/2 cup Whole Wheat Flour
  • 1/2 teaspoons Salt
  • 2 teaspoons Baking Soda
  • 1/2 teaspoons Baking Powder
  • 1/2 teaspoons Cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoons Nutmeg
  • 3 whole Eggs, Gently Whisked
  • 1 cup Vegetable Or Olive Oil
  • 2 teaspoons Vanilla Extract
  • 2 cups Shredded Zucchini
  • 1 can (8oz) Crushed Pineapple
  • 1-1/2 cup Granulated Sugar
  • 3/4 cups Chopped Pecans

Method

  • 1. Combine all purpose and whole wheat flours, salt, baking soda and powder, cinnamon, and nutmeg in a medium bowl. (You can use 3 cups all-purpose flour if you don't have any whole wheat, but I like the texture and "goodness" it adds to this bread.)
  • 2. In a separate bowl, combine the eggs, oil, and vanilla.
  • 3. Grate zucchini and place in a large bowl. This should take 1 1/2 or 2 zucchinis.
  • 4. Add in the can of pineapple, including the juice. Then mix in the sugar, followed by the egg mixture. (It's supposed to be soupy, don't worry!)
  • 5. Stir in the flour mixture and pecans.
  • 6. Spoon batter into muffin tins that have been cooking sprayed and coated with flour.
  • 7. Bake at 350 F for 20-25 minutes.
  • You can also use this recipe for bread. It will make 2 loaves. Those will bake at 350 F as well for 50 minutes.
