Ingredients

1 cup wholemeal spelt flour

1½ tsp baking powder

½ tsp cinnamon

¼ tsp allspice

¼ tsp ground cloves

½ tsp powdered ginger

¼ tsp salt

¹/3 cup raisins

3 tbsp walnuts, chopped

¹/3 cup sunflower oil

4 tbsp orange juice, fresh

2 tbsp honey

1 egg free range

1 cup zucchini, finely grated

Method

Pre heat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius.

In one bowl combine the flour, baking powder, spices, salt, raisin and walnuts. In another bowl mix the oil, orange juice, honey, egg and zucchini. Combine the wet ingredients through the dry until well combined. Bake in a lined loaf tin for 35 - 40 minutes. Turn the loaf out onto a wire rack and allow to cool.

Note: Sunflower provides more vitamin E than any other vegetable oil. It is a combination on monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats and has a light taste making it perfect for baking.
