This Peach Berry Zucchini Bread combines the best flavors of summer. Peaches and blueberries go together like chocolate and peanut butter, they just belong together. This bread is moist, sweet, and satisfying without all the fat and sugar, and zucchini plays so well with others and does its part in creating a moist, satisfying, and even healthy snack. Replacing the oil and butter in this recipe with peach puree adds sweetness, a bright flavor, and moisture, without the added fat and calories. Also, I am a fan of using mini loaf pans or mini muffin tins for my sweet treats when I can, because I am mindful of portion size. For this recipe, I used mini loaf pans, the recipe makes four mini loaves (and I cut each loaf into six snack-size servings).

Much like Double Chocolate Zucchini Brownie Bites, this bread is easy to make—and every bit as delicious. I love this with a dollop of cool whip or whipped topping and some Triple Berry Sauce, for an indulgent dessert and I dare you not to lick the bowl!

A few helpful hints before you start:

  • This recipe can be made using mini loaf pans, mini muffin tins, or a standard loaf pan, it’s truly your preference. Baking time is a little different depending on which vessel you choose, but either way, they are delicious.
  • Use the ripest peaches in the bunch for a sweeter, peachier flavor.
  • I used a blender to puree the peach for this recipe. But a food processor or a hand masher will work too (if your peach is ripe enough).
  • The MyWW™ Smartpoint values will vary depending on the baking vessel you use and how big your slices are. 24 servings = 1sp and 12 servings = 3sp on all MyWW™ plans.
  • You can use frozen berries for this recipe. But I do prefer fresh berries for my bread.
  • I used self-rising flour, but you can use all-purpose flour, just whisk 1-1/2 tsp baking powder and 1/4 tsp salt into your flour.
  • I didn’t test this recipe in a full-size loaf or muffin tins, but either would work just as well, however, the number of servings and baking time would need to be adjusted.
  • Baking time varies between ovens. I baked these in my Ninja Digital Air Fry Oven, at 325° for 30 minutes and they were perfect. In a traditional oven bake this at 350° for 30-40 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.

Ingredients

  • ½ cup Swerve™ Brown Sugar Replacement
  • ½ cup Truvia™ Cane Sugar Blend
  • ½ tsp kosher salt (if using table salt use only ¼ tsp)
  • 1 egg
  • 1 medium peach, pureed See recipe notes
  • 1 medium peach, diced (about 1/2-3/4 cup) See recipe notes
  • ½ cup blueberries See recipe notes
  • 2 tbsp Land O Lakes Light Butter with Canola Oil, melted
  • ¾ cup grated zucchini
  • ½ tbsp vanilla extract
  • 3 tbsp non-fat plain Greek yogurt
  • 1 cup self-rising flour

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°
  • Coat four mini loaf pans or one standard loaf pan (8½ x 4½ x 2½ inches) with non-stick cooking spray.
  • Wash, remove pits, and peel both peaches, puree one peach in a blender or food processor until smooth, and dice the other peach into small cubes. You should have total of about ½ cup of pureed and ½-¾ cups of diced, depending on the size of your peaches.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the sugar, salt, egg, pureed peaches, and butter until well combined. Add in the zucchini, vanilla, and yogurt and mix until incorporated.
  • Sift the flour into the wet mixture and stir until just combined. Gently fold in the blueberries and diced peaches. Do not over mix.
  • Pour the batter evenly into the prepared mini loaf pans (or into one standard loaf pan). Bake for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. If using a standard loaf pan, increase cooking time to 45 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.
  • Let cool before slicing or serving. Enjoy!

Notes

RECIPE NOTES:
You can use all-purpose flour for this recipe, but be sure to whisk 1-1/2 tsp of baking powder and 1/4 tsp of salt into the flour.
I use fresh peaches for this recipe, and a blender to puree the peach, but you can also use peach baby food and frozen peaches and blueberries if you do not have the fresh fruit available.
Baking time will vary depending on the size pan you use. I tested this recipe using mini loaf pans. It made four mini loaves. If you use a standard-size loaf pan, the servings will decrease to 12, and the points will go up to 3sp per serving. Remember that baking times will vary depending on which baking vessel you use.

After I posted on Saturday, a friend suggested that I was being too hard on myself, and that I should take another look at where I was when I started and where I am today to remind myself how far I've come--despite gaining some weight back.

I did just that, and it helped me realize that the idea of "starting at square one" after we experience a setback is a big lie.

In fact, I don't think we are ever really "right back where we started," rather, we are at a new beginning--usually with an army of valuable information gained from the mistakes we've made.

I guess what I'm trying to say is, embrace your setbacks, they are the fuel for your journey forward.

When I start to categorize certain foods as bad, I set myself up for failure. I feel like this meme nails it!!

"You may have to fight a battle more than once to win it." -Margaret Thatcher 

Two years ago, I thought I had finally done it--I conquered the weight-loss thing, once and for all.

Fast forward to now--up 40 pounds from this time two years ago. And boy oh boy have I been having a field day with the self- loathing, shame, and negative self talk.

I have been struggling to stay consistent, and waging war on myself with comparison. It has been a downward spiral that I feel powerless to control. Shame sent me into hiding--and go ahead, ask me how that has worked out!

Today I am choosing to come back, take control, and reset because when I started this journey three-plus years ago, I knew it would be hard, but choosing to give up would be harder.

Happy FriYAY 

I know it's been a while since I've posted or done a live video, in part because I feel a bit like a fraud.

I've gained some weight back, and the shame I feel has been paralyzing. And let me tell you, the negative self talk has been strong, and LOUD. 

But also totally UNTRUE.

Here's the truth. I'm not back where I started. I may have lost a little ground, gotten distracted and even lost my focus--but I haven't given up on my goal.

Never give up. Do not stop. Practice consistency. AND BELIEVE IN YOURSELF--even when you don’t! 😉

My daughter asked me to get her chicken McNuggets while I was out today. 

Can I just say, going through the drive-thru when you're hungry is hard. But I haven't had McDonald's (other than an Egg McMuffin a time or two) since 2019. And I wasn't going to start today...although I do plan to try the strawberry shortcake McFlurry before it's gone! But that's another post!

I decided to ask for a few extra sauces (my favorite is Hot Mustard) and came home to make my own copycat nuggets.

I wish I could take the credit for this piece of culinary genius, but I found the recipe while scrolling Instagram--it was a reel, so I'm not sure who it was!

Copy Cat  Chicken McNuggets
Serves 1 (12 nuggets) 
4 WW Points 
443 Calories 

12.5 oz can Kirkland Canned Chicken, drained
1 egg
65 grams 75% Reduced Fat Cabot Cheddar
1 tbsp grated parmesan 
Seasoning of your choice, I used some spicy ranch seasoning.
Avocado Oil cooking spray 

Preheat oven or airfryer to 400.

1. Mix all ingredients well, shape into nuggets (I got 12 out of this), place on pan spritzed with avocado oil cooking spray, then give them another quick spritz.

2. Air fry or bake 25 min or until golden and crispy, turning them over halfway through. I use the air fry function on my Ninja XL oven. 

I enjoyed these with my favorite McDonald's nugget sauce!

As a side note, the point/nutritional values will be different depending on the cheese you use.

I stumbled across an old journal entry from late 2020. And boy did I need the reminder.

I thought I'd share just in case any of you needed a reminder too:

"Transformation is a process. It takes time, and patience. Sometimes you're gonna hit it on all cylinders, and sometimes you're gonna struggle. In either case the requirement is to show up, and do the best that you can."
(December 13, 2020)

Don't ever underestimate your own wisdom, because most times the only expert you need is looking back at you in the mirror.

I had a bad hair day.. 

I was letting my hair grow because, for like a minute I was loving it long--and then yesterday on a whim I decided that I didn't. 

I sent a quick text to @nikitajohns, the best hairstylist ever, and a few hours later my hair was four inches shorter, my bad hair day was over, and I was ready for spring!

The moral of the story is: making a change doesn't require over thinking--just do it!

My eyes have been bothering me off and on for a few days, I figured it was just a Sjogrens flare, until this morning when I woke up with sore, red, goopy eyes.

So I scheduled a quick video visit with my doctor...
and the winner is:

Bacterial Conjunctivitis (aka) Pink Eye!!

I'm getting some antibiotic drops, but spam me with your best home remedies to soothe sore, achey eyes 👀!
