Andy’s Jalapeno Zucchini Bread

Ingredients

• 3 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 cup white sugar
• 1 cup brown sugar
• 3 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/4 teaspoon powdered jalapeno pepper
• 1/2 cup vegetable oil
• 1/2 cup applesauce
• 3 eggs
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 2 cups shredded zucchini
• 2 fresh jalapeno peppers, chopped with seeds

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease two 9x5x3-inch loaf pans.

Whisk flour, white sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon, salt, baking soda, baking powder, and powdered jalapeno pepper together in a bowl. Add vegetable oil, applesauce, and eggs to flour mixture; beat until until batter is smooth. Fold zucchini and fresh jalapenos into batter. Pour batter into prepared loaf pans.

Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center of the bread comes out clean, about 1 hour. Transfer to a wire rack to cool.
