Ingredients

  • 4 tbsp

    butter

  • 4 tbsp

    unsweetened applesauce

  • 1 c

    sugar

  • 3

    large eggs

  • 1 1/2 c

    all-purpose flour

  • 1/2 tsp

    salt

  • 1/8 tsp

    salt

  • 1/2 c

    plain yogurt

  • 1 c

    shredded zucchini

  • 3

    packets True Lemon

  • 2 tsp

    poppy seeds

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Beat butter and applesauce at a low speed with your stand mixer until creamy. Gradually add sugar, beating until light and fluffy. Add True Lemon. Add eggs, one at a time, beating just until blended after each addition.
  2. In a separate bowl, stir together flour, salt, and baking soda. Add to butter mixture alternately with yogurt, beginning and ending with flour mixture. Beat at a low speed just until blended after each addition. Stir in shredded zucchini and poppy seeds. Spoon batter into 3 greased 5 x 3-inch loaf pans (can use disposable aluminum ones) about 1 1/3 cups batter per pan.
  3. Bake in the oven for 45 minutes or until a wooden pick inserted in the center comes out clean. Allow to cool for about 10 minutes and remove bread from pans. Enjoy!
