Servings: persons

3 cups whole grain wheat flour (I prefer spelt)
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon ground cloves
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1 teaspoon ground allspice
½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 teaspoon fine sea salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon aluminum free baking powder
3 cups grated zucchini
3 large eggs (organic and cage-free taste the best)
1 12-2 cups raw sugar, demerara, coconut nectar, etc. (you can use turbinado (sugar in the raw)
1 cup light olive oil (I use a lighter olive oil from Trader Joe's that's not completely refined)
3 teaspoons vanilla
1 cup chopped pecans (or whole) (optional)

1
Adjust oven racks so that one is in the middle.
2
Preheat oven to 300 degrees.
3
Grease two loaf pans with butter or oil.
4
Combine the dry ingredients.
5
Beat together the wet ingredients (if you are using a coarse sugar, make sure it's pretty well dissolved).
6
Gently combine the dry ingredients with the wet ingredients.
7
Optional: add the chopped pecans now and/or wait to put some on top.
8
Pour the batter into the two loaf pans.
9
Optional: sprinkle chopped or whole pecans on top.
10
Bake 50 to 60 minutes* depending on type of pan (glass will take a little longer).
11
*I highly recommend to start checking the bread with a toothpick early (around 45 minutes for glass pans/maybe 35 minutes for metal) and then keep checking about every 5 minutes (longer if it's still really wet) until the toothpick just barely comes out clean (with only a few moist crumbs stuck to it).
12
If the toothpick comes out with no crumbs and leaves a hard little hole, you baked it too long.
13
Moistness is key for a delicious zucchini bread.
