DIRECTIONS:
- Preheat oven to 350 and add parchment paper to an 8 x 4 loaf pan.
- In a large bowl, mix the olive oil, egg, vanilla, honey substitute, almond milk and the zucchini together.
- Add in Oat Flour, spices, baking powder, baking salt and the salt to the wet ingredients.
- Pour batter into prepared loaf pan.
- Bake at 350 for 45 minutes or until the top of the bread is golden and inserting a knife or cake tester comes out clean.
- Allow bread to cool for 20 minutes in the pan on a baking sheet.
- Remove from the pan and allow to cool further.
- Cut into 6 thick slices. Per slice is is 6 SP on Blue, 6 SP on Green and on Purple I count it as 2 SP per slice. Why? Because on the Purple Plan Unflavored Oatmeal is 0 SP. When I eat Oatmeal, I eat 2 packets of oatmeal and it’s 0 SP, so basically, per Zucchini Bread slice, there may be 2-3 Packets of Oatmeal in it, so why count it? That’s just me, but if you want to do it by putting it in the calculator it’s 6 SP on Purple too. Enjoy!
