ZUCCHINI BANANA OATY BREAD

This is what happens when we have too many zucchini from the garden, rotting 'naners, and quick oats that no one wants to eat. Delish actually, and kind of healthy.

1 hour | 15 min prep

3 eggs
1 cup apple sauce
1 1/2 cups sugar

1 cup quick oats
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 cup chopped pecans (opt)
1 cup raw zucchini, shredded
1 cup mashed ripe banana

1. Shred zucchini and set aside.
2. Mash bananas and set aside.
3. In large mixing bowl, beat eggs, sugar and apple sauce together.
4. Add flour, oats, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, salt, vanilla and nuts.
5. Mix together.
