Veggie & Fruit Prep
2

Wash zucchini, carrot, and apple.
Peel the carrot and apple.
Chop zucchini, carrot, and apple into large pieces.

3

Using a food processor chop zucchini, carrot, and apple into fine pieces (smaller than your pinky fingernail). It should make about 2 cups.

You need at least 1 3/4 cups of mixture, but no more than 2 cups.

Option 2: Finely grate the zuc, carrot, and apple by hand.

Bread Mixture
4

In a large mixing bowl combine flours, sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, xanthan gum, and salt. Mix thoroughly.

5

In a small mixing bowl whisk nut milk, water, oil, flaxseed, and vanilla.

6

Mix wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, until they are combined and there are no dry patches left. The batter will be very thick. It takes a bit of stirring.

7

Fold in the finely chopped zuc, carrot, and apple mix. Stir until it is evenly mixed in. The batter will be very thick.

8

Scoop half the batter into one bread loaf pan, and half in the other. Smooth the top of the batter down before baking.

9

Bake for 60-70 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

Cool in the pan for 10 minutes before removing from pan onto a cooling rack. Cool completely before slicing.

Tastes the best when toasted.

Freezer tips:
Slice entire loaf. Cut parchment paper into strips the size of a slice of bread. In a container or gallon size bag layer the slices of bread with parchment paper between each slice (see gallery photos).
When you want a slice of bread, take it out of the freezer and toast on low for 2-3 cycles.
