Method

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Lightly coat two 8-inch loaf pans with cooking spray. In a large bowl, beat the eggs; add the oil, sweetener, vanilla, pineapple, and zucchini. In a second large bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt (if using). If using, add the walnuts and toss. Mix the dry ingredients into the egg mixture until just combined. Spoon into the prepared loaf pans. Bake for 40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the middle comes out clean. Cool in pans for 5 minutes. Remove from pans and cool on wire racks.
