Zucchini Bread
baked with protein packed grains, a touch of honey, and warming spices
This is one of my favorite archerfriendly recipes. I love the hearty flavor produced from the combination of quinoa, buckwheat, chickpea, and almond flours. The texture is fantastic and it has the perfect level of sweetness. Its so nutritionally dense, how could it not taste good? I love the taste of wholesome food.
About a year ago, my husband and I went camping for a week on Orcas Island. I made a batch of this recipe and froze it in advance to pack in the cooler for the trip. It traveled really nicely, but I did need to ensure that it was protected from being smooshed. The smoosh-ability aspect may not make this zucchini bread ideal for living out of a cooler, but the nutrition content does! Each mini loaf (if you make 8) contains almost 7 grams of protein and 4 grams of fiber.
