More zucchini goodness

I couldn't find my carrot zucchini muffin recipe but I did find this one which is just as good.

Carrot and Zucchini Bars

2 eggs slightly beaten
3/4 c packed brown sugar
1/2 c canola oil
1/4 c honey
1 tsp vanilla
1 1/2 c shredded carrot
1 c shredded zucchini
1/2 c chopped walnuts
1 1/2 c all purpose flour
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp ground ginger
1/4 tsp baking soda

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, brown sugar, oil, honey, and vanilla.  Don't worry about clumps of the brown sugar, those will dissolve.  Then fold in the carrot, zucchini, and walnuts.

In another bowl combine the flour, powder, ginger, and soda. Whisk to blend together.

Add the flour mixture to the wet mixture. Stir just until combined. Spread batter into an ungreased, 13x9x2inch baking pan.

Bake about 25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool completely in pan on a wire rack.  It is suggested that these be frosted but my guys like them bare and they are certainly moist enough without.
