Ingredients

  • 2 cups sugar
  • 1 cup canola oil
  • 3 eggs
  • 2 cups A to Z ingredients (choose from list below)
  • 3 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon no salt baking powder
  • 3 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon no salt baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon Diamond Crustal Salt (this has less sodium)
  • 1 cup chopped walnuts

A TO Z INGREDIENTS:

  • Apples, peeled and shredded
  • Applesauce
  • Apricots (dried), chopped
  • Banana (ripe), mashed
  • Carrot, shredded
  • Sweetened shredded coconut
  • Dates, pitted and chopped
  • Figs (dried), chopped
  • Grapes (seedless), chopped
  • Oranges, peeled and chopped
  • Peaches, peeled and chopped
  • Pears, peeled and chopped
  • Pineapple (canned), crushed and drained
  • Dried plums, pitted and chopped
  • Pumpkin, canned
  • Raisins
  • Raspberries, fresh or frozen
  • Rhubarb, chopped fresh or frozen
  • Strawberries, fresh or frozen
  • Sweet potatoes, cooked and mashed
  • Zucchini, peeled and shredded

Directions

Combine the sugar, oil and eggs in a large bowl. Stir in A to Z ingredients of your choice and vanilla.

Combine flour, baking powder, cinnamon, baking soda and salt; stir into liquid ingredients just until moistened. Stir in walnuts. Pour into two greased 8-in. x 4-in. loaf pans.

Bake at 350° for 60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool for 10 minutes before removing from pans to wire racks. Yield: 2 loaves ( 13 – 14 slices each).

Sodium is about 900mg per loaf, but this is using Zucchini, so under 70mg per slice.

I found the original recipe for this in the Contra Costa Times in about 1981 and have been making it ever since. I have adapted it for low sodium.
