Speaking of zucchini bread---I made this recipe last night and tweaked it for lower sugar/fat

I got 3 large loaves and it's very nice.

I used 5 eggs, 2 cups of Splenda and 1 cup of brown sugar, 1 1/4 cups oil, and 1 cup applesauce. then, I mixed up everything and left out the choc chips. I dipped out the first loaf batter and added some chopped pecans and raisins to it. the second loaf got dipped out and I added a cup of choc chips to that one. the remaining batter got a heaping tablespoon of dark cocoa powder added to it as well as some more chips. this was baked in a round casserole dish and came out a lovely round cake. We'll be digging into all 3 this weekend.

** Amy's Chocolate Chip Zucchini Bread **

My friend Amy sent me her recipe for her sweet zucchini bread. This is "...one of our all-time fave recipes for something dessert-like, even if it isn't specific to Thanksgiving." When her daughter brought home a baseball-bat sized zucchini this past summer, this is what they did with it. smileys/smile.gif Makes 4 loaves.

4 loaves

6 eggs

4 cups sugar

2 cups oil

4-5 cups shredded zucchini

6 cups flour

2 teaspoons baking soda

1 teaspoon baking powder

2 teaspoons salt

1 tablespoon cinnamon

1 tablespoon vanilla

1 (12 ounce) package miniature chocolate chips

1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees.

2. Beat together eggs, sugar and oil.

3. Add zucchini and remaining ingredients, mixing well.

4. Bake in 4 well-greased loaf pans for about one hour. (mine took longer)
