• 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
• 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
• 1/4 teaspoon each ground allspice and nutmeg
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 1 cup chopped walnuts
• 3 eggs
• 1/2 cup firmly packed brown sugar
• 1 cup salad oil
• 1 teaspoon each vanilla extract and grated lemon rind
• 2 medium zucchini (unpeeled), coarsely shredded (about 2 cups lightly packed)

DIRECTIONS

• Preheat oven to 350° F. In a large bowl stir together flours, baking soda, salt, baking powder, cinnamon, allspice, nutmeg, and granulated sugar. Mix in walnuts.
• In a medium bowl beat eggs to blend yolks and whites, then beat in brown sugar, oil, vanilla, and lemon rind. Mix zucchini into egg mixture, then combine with flour mixture, stirring just until dry ingredients are moistened.
• Divide batter evenly into two greased, lightly floured 4 1/2 x 8 1/2 inch loaf pans.
• Bake until loaves are well browned and a wooden skewer inserted in center comes out clean (50 minutes to 1 hour). Let cool in pans for 10 minutes, then turn out onto wire racks to cool completely.
