Number Of Ingredients 14

3 eggs
2 cups grated zucchini
1 cup mashed banana (about 3 medium bananas)
2/3 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 cup real maple syrup
3/4 cup oil
2 teaspoons vanilla
3 1/2 cups whole wheat pastry flour
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup chopped walnuts (preferably toasted)
1/2 cup chopped dates (optional)

Steps:

Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Grease and flour two 8x4 inch bread loaf pans.
In a large bowl, beat eggs until light yellow and frothy. Add oil, brown sugar, maple syrup, grated zucchini, bananas, and vanilla; blend together until well combined. Stir in the flour, cinnamon, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Mix in the nuts and dates, if using. Divide the batter evenly between the two prepared loaf pans.
Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, about 45 minutes. Allow to cool in the loaf pans on a wire rack before removing and serving.
