Banana Zucchini Blackberry Bread

Another delicious use for all that zucchini lying around the house...

1 cup sugar
1/2 cup salted butter, room temperature
1 egg
2 large ripe bananas
1 cup shredded zucchini
1/4 cup milk or almond milk
1 tsp cinnamon
1 1/2 cup all purpose flour
1/2 cup whole wheat flour
1 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. baking soda
3/4 cup chopped walnuts
6-8 blackberries, cut into thirds

1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Grease a standard muffin tin or line cups with paper liners.
2. Cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add egg and mix in completely.
3. Mash bananas in separate bowl and mix in milk and cinnamon. Add in zucchini.
4. Whisk together flour, baking soda and baking powder in separate bowl.
5. Starting and ending with flour mixture, alternate adding flour and bananas to butter and sugar. Only mix until just incorporated.
6. Fold in walnuts and then gently fold in the blackberries
7. Fill muffin cups with batter and sprinkle tops with demerara sugar.
8. Bake 18-20 minutes.

*I made little breads instead of muffins so drop the temp down to 350 and bake for 35-40 minutes. Yummy!
