Directions
  1. Preheat oven to 350°. 
  2. Coat a 9x5" loaf pan with nonstick cooking spray; line the bottom and long sides of the pan with a single sheet of parchment paper that overhangs the long sides by 2-3" (about 7x14").

  5. Add about ½ of the flour mixture; mix just until incorporated. Add remaining flour mixture; mix until combined. 
  6. Fold zucchini, carrot, apple and walnuts into batter.
  7. Pour batter into prepared pan; bake in preheated oven until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean (45-60 min.).
  8. Remove from oven; let cool for 20 min. before removing bread from pan.
