Zucchini Carrot Bread

A very fragrant cake, with cinnamon, a little damp, fluffy, melts in your mouth - perfect for those who want a healthy diet and for capricious sweet-loving children. You can also add wholemeal flour, to make it even healthier, the zucchini do not feel bad at all - I had guests that evening, I served them and I asked them to tell me what they think, from what is done. None of them were close to guessing (that is, they didn't realize the carrots and zucchini), but everyone said it was perfect.

You can also make muffins from this dough, I don't have good muffin tins and I said to make a cake.

So, I definitely recommend you to try it.
