6 WBMO - Preworkout Moist Zucchini Bread

___________________________

From member ....  I don’t cook often and I need things simple.  I took the PWO pineapple upside down cake recipe and made some revisions and this is now a staple in my freezer. 

 Note:  This recipe may be used by all body types at breakfast, morning snack or afternoon snack if working out directly afterward.  Since the quantity of fruit per serving is insufficient to constitute a full serving, please remember to augment your fruit serving when enjoying this recipe. 

•  3 cups oatmeal (not ground)
•  1 teaspoon nsa baking powder**
•  1-2 teaspoons cinnamon (to taste)
•  ½ teaspoon nutmeg
•  ½ cup Splenda
•  12 fresh egg whites  
•  3 cups shredded or grated zucchini (less if you want it dry, more if you want it more moist.  I don't measure the zucchini, I just use 6 medium.  If they're huge I use less, if they're small I use more. I like mine really moist.)
•  1 cup unsweetened applesauce
•  3 teaspoons vanilla extract

Optional topping: 

• 2 tablespoons Splenda  
• ½ teaspoon cinnamon
• 2 tablespoons oatmeal (not ground)

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Blend dry ingredients in a medium bowl. Set aside. In a large bowl, first put in the egg whites. Then mix the applesauce, zucchini and vanilla extract into the egg whites. Blend in the dry ingredients with the egg white mixture. Pour into a 13" x 9" pan that is lined with Reynolds’s Release Wrap, cooking parchment or use a silicone pan. 

For topping; mix ingredients in a bowl and sprinkle on top before baking.

Bake in the oven for 45-55 minutes or until dry in the center when you stick with a toothpick. Allow to cool completely in the pan, and then remove the entire cake by lifting it out by the wrap or use a rubber spatula to cut into your slices and remove and wrap to freeze.

Slice into 6 individual servings and store in airtight containers the refrigerator. Can also be made into muffins.  Less cooking time is needed; use the toothpick method to determine when they are done.

It is very good eaten cold, hot, or room temperature.
