1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
2 large eggs
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 cup peeled, finely chopped apple (about 1 medium apple)
1/2 cup chopped walnuts (optional)
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9×5 inch loaf pan.
In a medium bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves.
In a large bowl, beat the eggs with granulated sugar and brown sugar until well combined.
Add vegetable oil and vanilla extract to the egg mixture and mix until smooth.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing just until combined.
Fold in the grated zucchini, chopped apple, and walnuts if using, until evenly distributed.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and spread it evenly.
Bake for 55 to 60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes.
Transfer the bread to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
