Recipe From Louise

As many requested (after a taste on Saturday), below is the vegan zucchini bread recipe

1 1/2 cups flour
2 tsp baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 tsp cinnamon
3 tbsp ground flax seed
1/2 cup maple syrup
1/3 cup oil (if you are doubling the recipe you can do half apple sauce and half oil)
1 tsp vinegar
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups grated zucchini
1/2 cup chopped walnuts
1/2 cup chocolate chips (or raisins etc.)
1/4 cup water (if batter is not moist enough)

Preheat oven to 350. Mix flour, baking powder, salt, cinnamon and flax seed. Add maple syrup, oil, vinegar and vanilla. Mix in zucchini, walnuts and chocolate chips. If batter is too thick add water. Pour into oiled bread pan, add walnuts to top for aesthetic purposes. Bake for at least an hour (often 1.5 depending on oven). Difficult to know when it's done as it will often be too wet in the center if not cooked long enough.

P.S.-I normally double the recipe to make one large and one small loaf.

Enjoy!
Louise
