Sour Cream Zucchini Bread

Description

This is an extremely good and rich bread, absoutely yummy fresh from the oven but it is great chilled from the refrigerator or heated with melted butter. It can be frozen too. I make mini loaves to give as great gifts! Adapted from Mike Dolan who posted it on recipelinks and I changed it to make it my own. It would even be good with chocolate chips added! :) Makes 2 regular loaves or 4 mini loaves. Enjoy! To make the bread even healthier, try substituting 1/2 of the oil with applesauce.

Ingredients

• 1 cup brown sugar
• 1 cup nuts (or raisins-good with both!)
• 1 cup oil (a neutral oil, I use corn or soy oil-or use 1/2 oil, 1/2 applesauce)
• 1 cup white sugar
• 1 tablespoon toasted wheat germ (optional)
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 teaspoon cinnamon
• 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 cup light sour cream (or plain yogurt)
• 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
• 2 cups zucchini, shredded, squeezed to remove excess liquid
• 3 cups flour, sifted (try 2 cups white flour, 1 cup whole wheat)
