Ingredients


3 eggs, lightly beaten
2 cups sugar (1 br, 1 white)
1 cup canned pumpkin
1/2 cup butter or margarine melted
1/2 cup oil
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
3 cups all-purpose flour (1/2 whole wheat if preferred)
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1 3/4 cup shredded zucchini (less moisture)
1 cup chopped walnuts or dried cranberries or raisins or chocolate chips (optional)

Brown Sugar, Cinnamon, and Sugar mixture if desired for top.

Bake at 350
Large loaves will need about 45 mins.  Small loaves will need around 30.  Check for doneness.
Can be made into muffins also (bake about 20 mins)

Directions

In a mixing bowl, combine eggs and sugar. Add pumpkin, butter and vanilla. Combine dry ingredients; gradually add to pumpkin mixture and mix well. Stir in zucchini and nuts. Pour into two greased and floured 9-in. x 5-in. x 3-in. loaf pans. Bake at 350 degrees F for 45-50 minutes or until breads test done. Cool in pans 10 minutes. Remove to a wire rack.  Wrap with plastic wrap to cool, eat the next day for best texture, or gobble up right now....we probably will.
