Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Prepare 4 mini loaf pans measuring 3 by 6 inches by rubbing the

bottom and sides of the pans with butter and then sprinkling with flour to coat, tapping out the excess flour.
In a large mixing bowl add the grated zucchini, sugar, egg and oil. Mix well. Add the all-purpose and whole-wheat flour.baking powder, baking soda, milk and vanilla. Mix well to combine.the cranberries, chocolate chips and pecans.Stir to thoroughly incorporate. Fill each of the prepared loaf pans about 3/4 full with batter and bake for 45 minutes or until a wooden toothpick or a knife inserted into the middle of the loaf comes out clean.step pans from the oven and allow them to cool on a wire rack for 10 minutes.

Then run a small knife around the sides of the loaves to loosen them from the pans,

and tip the pans sideways to turn the bread out onto the cooling rack, using the knife or a flat

spatula to remove the loaves without breaking them. Once they are cooled completely, wrap the

bread with Saran™ Premium Wrap or cellophane (or place in Ziploc® Holiday Containers) and give as gifts.
