Now all American readers of this will yawn, but I still can&#8217;t hide my excitement about the fact, that zucchinis in breads and cakes are absolutely delicious. Although I posted a zucchini bread recipe a few days ago, I experimented some more and created this utterly and amazingly moist and yummy apple zucchini cake. I convinced not only my German parents (who have never had veggies in their cake apart from the other zucchini bread that I baked ) but also my 80 something year old grandparents of this amazing and healthy cake.<\/div>\n<div style=\"clear: both; text-align: center;\"><\/div>\n<p>You will not detect the taste of zucchini at all, instead you will think this is a tasty apple cake with crunchy walnuts and a hint of cinnamon. Zucchinis have a high content of water (similar to cucumbers), therefore are low in calories. They are rich in vitamins A and C and folate and fibre. What else would you want in a cake that is even good enough to impress your grandparents!!!! One thing is for sure: I will bake zucchini breads very often for the rest of my life. <b><br \/>\n<\/b><br \/>\n<b>&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8211; <\/b><\/p>\n<div style=\"background-color: #eeeeee;\"><b>APPLE ZUCCHINI CAKE WITH WALNUTS<\/b><\/div>\n<div style=\"background-color: #eeeeee;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.blogger.com\/goog_972202021\">\u00a0<\/a><\/div>\n<div style=\"background-color: #eeeeee;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/sites.google.com\/site\/anjasprintablerecipes\/apple-zucchini-cake-with-walnuts\">(Print Recipe)<\/a><\/div>\n<div style=\"background-color: #eeeeee;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"background-color: #eeeeee;\">1 1\/2 cups whole wheat or spelt flour<\/div>\n<div style=\"background-color: #eeeeee;\">1\/2 teaspoon salt<\/div>\n<div style=\"background-color: #eeeeee;\">1 teaspoon baking powder<\/div>\n<div style=\"background-color: #eeeeee;\">1 teaspoon ground cinnamon<\/div>\n<div style=\"background-color: #eeeeee;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"background-color: #eeeeee;\">3\/4 cup grated apples (with peel)<\/div>\n<div style=\"background-color: #eeeeee;\">3\/4 cup grated zucchini (with peel)<\/div>\n<div style=\"background-color: #eeeeee;\">1\/2 cup chopped walnuts<\/div>\n<div style=\"background-color: #eeeeee;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"background-color: #eeeeee;\">2 eggs<\/div>\n<div style=\"background-color: #eeeeee;\">3\/4 cup agave syrup<\/div>\n<div style=\"background-color: #eeeeee;\">1\/4 cup olive oil<\/div>\n<div style=\"background-color: #eeeeee;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"background-color: #eeeeee;\">Yields 1 loaf<\/div>\n<p>&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;-<br \/>\nPreheat oven to 180C.
