Total Time: 65 minutes

Yield: 24 serving(s)

Ingredients

  • Nonstick cooking spray
  • 1 large egg white
  • 1 cup apple sauce
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 cups sugar
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup whole wheat flour
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 2 cups grated zucchini
  • 1 pint blueberries

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Spray two 9x9 inch baking dishes with nonstick cooking spray. You may also use silicone muffin, brownie, bar, or mini loaf pans.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together egg white, apple sauce, vanilla extract, and sugar.
  3. In a separate mixing bowl, combine flour, wheat flour, salt, baking powder, baking, soda, and cinnamon.
  4. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring just until all is combined and a batter is formed.
  5. Gently fold zucchini and blueberries into the batter and then divide equally between the two greased baking dishes.
  6. Bake 35-40 minutes, until a toothpick inserted into the center of the bars comes out clean. Let cool 15 minutes before cutting each dish into 12 bars. Serve warm or at room temperature.
