ZUCCHINI PROTEIN BREAD
I got this recipe from Mollie Katzen's Sunlight Cafe. I changed it just a little bit, because it calls for pecans, and my boyfriend can't eat them. This is wonderful for breakfast with cream cheese spread on it! High protein, low sugar, very nutritious!

Steps:
- place grated zucchini in colander and sprinkle with 1/4 teaspoon salt. mix well and let sit at least 10 minutes. squeeze out excess water.
- grease a normal size loaf pan, or two small loaf pans. preheat oven to 350 f.
- combine both flours, 1/2 teaspoon salt, baking powder, baking soda, turbinado (or sugar), cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger.
- in a separate bowl, combine the zucchini (be sure it has most of the water squeezed out), buttermilk, eggs, vanilla, and butter. i find it is easiest to add the butter to the zucchini, mix it, and then add the rest. otherwise i accidently cook my eggs with the hot butter.
- add the zucchini mix to the dry ingredients. mix well. add the nuts and currants. mix well.
- pour into bread pan(s) and bake about one hour. i usually have to add another fifteen minutes if it is all in one pan, because the bottom is still so gooey.

Tips:
- Choose the right zucchini: For the best results, use fresh, firm zucchini. Avoid zucchini that is too soft or has blemishes.
- Grate the zucchini finely: This will help it distribute evenly throughout the bread and create a moist, tender crumb.
- Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing can make the bread tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Bake the bread until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: This will ensure that the bread is cooked through.
- Let the bread cool completely before slicing: This will help it hold its shape and prevent it from crumbling.
