Step 1

Preheat oven to 350°F. Spray a 9x5-inch loaf pan with cooking spray.

Step 2

In a large bowl, add the grated zucchini, sugar, brown sugar, applesauce, oil, eggs, and vanilla. Whisk until well combined.

Step 3

Add the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon. Stir just until no dry flour remains, trying not to overmix.

Step 4

Pour the batter into the loaf pan. Bake for 50 to 54 minutes. A toothpick inserted into the center of the bread should come out with moist crumbs on it.

Step 5

Cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Remove from the pan and transfer to a wire cooling rack to cool completely before slicing.

Step 6

Store covered in the refrigerator. This bread is best served after it has been refrigerated for at least 12 hours.
