Gluten Free Zucchini Bread

Tried this recipe last night and it was a big hit! We cooked it in both regular loaves and mini loaves and both were perfect. The GFJ even took them for school snack today.

This bread freezes well and can be served plain or with your favorite jam, jelly, or just plain butter.

Ingredients
Directions
Preheat oven to 350º. Grease two 8 x 4-inch nonstick pans. (For smaller loaves, use three or four 5 x 3-inch nonstick loaf pans.

In large bowl, cream oil, sugar, eggs, applesauce, and vanilla together with electric mixer until very smooth. Add flour, baking powder, cinnamon, xanthan gum, salt, and cloves. Mix thoroughly on medium speed until thoroughly combined. Quickly (but gently) stir in zucchini, nuts, and raisins. Batter will be somewhat thick. Turn batter into prepared pans.

Bake 8 x 4-inch loaves for 60-65 minutes; 5 x 3-inch pans for 45 minutes. Place foil over bread during final 20 minutes of baking to reduce over-browning. Cool in pan for 10 minutes, then turn out onto wire rack. Cool thoroughly before slicing. Makes 12 slices.
