Second Chance To Dream - Nectresse sweetened Zucchini Pineapple Bread

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of NECTRESSE™Sweetener for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine.

Zucchini in the summer is in abundant supply. You often see people giving it away. We grow a big garden and one of the things I love to grow is zucchini. I have several things I like to make with the zucchini but one of my very favorites is zucchini pineapple bread and or/ muffins. It’s one of my guilty pleasures. You see I can’t eat a lot of sugar. Sugar and I just don’t get along. I seem to gain weight instantly and it makes me really grouchy. Some artificial sweeteners give me sever headaches, so I can’t use them. So, for those reasons I don’t eat a lot of sugar.

I happened to run into a new product and I really wanted to try it. I knew exactly what I wanted to make with it. My yummy zucchini pinapple bread. The product is: NECTRESSE™Sweetener. It derives its natural sweetness from the monk fruit, and is the only 100% natural sweetener made from fruit-monk fruit extract.    Now this gets me excited! It has zero calories and the sweetener is 150 times sweeter than sugar, and can be used in cooking and baking to add natural, zero calorie per serving sweetness. Nectresse comes in individual packets perfect to take with you when you’re on the go, as well as in canisters for shaking, pouring, and scooping as well as baking. The price is great as well. The cost is 3.99 for the packets and 6.99 for the canisters. It is available now at most grocery stores.

Not only am I excited about it but I found out that Lisa Ling is the spokesperson for NECTRESSE Sweetener. Her family has a history of diabetes so she’s very cautious about her sugar intake. Watch this video testimonial by Lisa Ling to hear more of her story.

Now for my yummy Zucchini Pineapple Bread.

Ingredients needed:
4 eggs
30 Packets of NECTRESSE Sweetener (1 packet = 2 t of sugar)
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 cup vegetable oil
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
3/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 (8 ounce) can crushed pineapple, drained
2 cups grated zucchini
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
Directions:
Combine flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
In a large bowl, mix oil, eggs, vanilla, Nectresse sweetner, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Blend in pineapple and zucchini. Stir flour mixture into zucchini mixture.

Pour batter into four greased 7-3/8 x 3-5/8 x 2 inch Loaf Pan loaf pans. I had enough batter to also do 12 mini muffins. I added a walnut to each of the mini muffins.

Bake at 350 degrees F for 30 minutes. Cool on wire racks.
