2 tsps ground cinnamon
3/4 tsp ground nutmeg
1 cup each chopped walnuts and currants(or raisins)
HERE'S HOW YOU DO IT....
In a large bowl, beat eggs until froth
Add oil, sugar and vanilla , continue beating until mixture is thick and foamy.
Stir in zucchini and pineapple
In a separate bowl, sift in flour, baking powder, salt, cinnamon and nutmeg.

Spoon into 2 greased 9x5 inch loaf pan.
