Ingredients

    Sweet & Low, 80 serving

    Raisins, 15 raisins
    Sunflower Seeds, with salt added, .15 cup
    Powdered Sugar, 1 tbsp, unsifted

Tips

More raisins would be good, or craisins. They have some cool flavors out now. The blueberry ones would be pretty good.
Also I just threw in whatever nuts I had, but walnuts would be the best in this bread.
Instead of carrots, you can add sweet potato or another favorite vegetable. Just make sure you grate it thin enough to be good in bread.


Directions

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
2. Line 9x5x3" pan with parchment paper.
3. Sift flour, cinnamon, baking soda, baking powder and salt into a medium bowl.
4. Beat sugar, sweet n low, oil, eggs and vanilla to blend in a large bowl.
5. Mix in zucchini and carrots, then dry ingredients, then nuts, seeds and raisins. Stir well.
6. Transfer batter to prepared pan. Bake until tester in center comes out clean (about 1 hour, 20 minutes).
7. Cool bread for at least 15 minutes.
8. Flip bread and peel off parchment paper.
9. Cool completely, then sift powdered sugar on top.
