Helpful hints
- Boost protein content to 4 grams by adding 7 tablespoons of your favorite protein powder to dry ingredients.
- If Splenda® is used instead of sugar, carbohydrate is decreased to 22 grams and 1-1/2 carbohydrate choices.
- Zucchini bread freezes well. Wrap in plastic wrap, then place in a freezer bag.
- If desired, use 2/3 cup applesauce and omit the oil, or use 2/3 cup oil and omit the applesauce.
