Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C) and grease two loaf pans with butter or non-stick spray.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, cinnamon, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until no lumps remain.
  3. In a large bowl, beat the eggs until frothy, then add vegetable oil, vanilla extract, white sugar, and brown sugar, mixing until creamy.
  4. Slowly incorporate the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, stirring gently until just combined.
  5. Fold in the grated zucchini, diced apples, and chopped walnuts if using, ensuring even distribution.
  6. Let the batter rest for about 5 minutes for flavors to meld.
  7. Divide the batter between the loaf pans and bake for 40-60 minutes, checking for doneness with a toothpick.
  8. Allow the loaves to cool in the pans for 20 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
