Ingredients

• 0.25 Cup canned pumpkin
• 1 Whole banana, mashed
• 1 Whole egg
• 2 Whole egg whites
• 1 Cup maple syrup
• 0.33 Cup raw sugar
• 1 Tablespoon vanilla extract
• 2 Cups zucchini, grated
• 2 Cups whole wheat pastry flour
• 1 Cup unprocessed bran
• 1 Teaspoon salt
• 1 Teaspoon baking soda
• 0.25 Teaspoon baking powder
• 1 Tablespoon cinnamon, ground
• 0.5 Teaspoon nutmeg, ground
• 0.25 Teaspoon cloves, ground
• 0.25 Teaspoon ginger, ground
• 0.25 Teaspoon allspice, ground

Steps

1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x13 inch baking pan.
2. In a large bowl, combine the pumpkin, mashed banana, egg, and egg whites. Beat in the maple syrup, raw sugar, and vanilla extract until the mixture is frothy. Stir in the grated zucchini and set aside.
3. In a separate bowl, mix together the whole wheat pastry flour, unprocessed bran, salt, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, ginger, and allspice.
4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the zucchini mixture, stirring just until all ingredients are moistened. Avoid over-mixing to prevent the bread from becoming tough.
5. Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan. Bake for 50 to 60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
6. Allow the bread to cool completely before cutting it into squares.
