To recap the last week or so’s worth of fun and funky pea and lentil recipes, I’ve slipped these healthy little jewels into Chilled Pea or Lentil Salad, Pumpkin Hummus, Zucchini Bread, Veggie Burgers and Chocolate Cake. I’ve never been opposed to increasing fiber, protein, vitamins, and complex carbs in my foods, but only where the end result is a dish that’s just as yummy, moist and aftertaste-free as it would have been without the nutritional boost.

That’s probably why I’ve been so excited by these recipes. Thanks to the USA Dried Pea & Lentil Council (DPLC), I’ve had an opportunity to work with all kinds of dried lentils and peas to develop these recipes, and now they want to give you a chance to play with your peas too!

CONTEST: If you are one of the first 500 people who comments on this recipe or the recipes posted by the other bloggers in this contest, and you then email your name and address to peasnlentils@edelman.com, you will have a nice little care package of peas and lentils sent to your door … for free! So don’t dilly- dally and miss out! (*Your personal information will not be used again by DPLC or provided to any other outside vendors).

By commenting on this recipe, you’ll also be supporting me in the blogger recipe contest that DPLC is hosting! There are 7 participating bloggers, but only one who writes gluten-free recipes (that’s me!). If I get the most comments on my gluten-free pea & lentil recipe, I’ll win a prize too!

So, (1) leave a comment below this recipe, (2) email your name and address to peasnlentils@edelman.com to get your free peas & lentils, (3) tell all your friends to comment on this recipe & get claim their free peas & lentils, and (4) have fun trying some yummy, healthy new gluten-free recipes!

It’s a win-win-win-win!

CONTEST IS NOW CLOSED

And speaking of winning, I’m happy to announce the winners of last week’s contest! Julie Turner has won the amazing Le Creuset Steamer Set and Ellen C. has won the Chicago Metallic Baking Sheet and cupcake liners! Please email your shipping address to Support@JulesGlutenFree.com so we can get your goodies out to you asap!! Congratulations!!

So without further ado, I present to you the peas & lentils recipe that intrigued you the most: Eat-Your-Veggies Zucchini Bread! A great quick bread to sneak in added nutrition (vitamins, minerals, fiber, protein …) where no one will suspect a thing, and just in time for summer squash season! Enjoy!

Eat-Your-Veggies Zucchini Bread

Ingredients:

  • 1/2 cup granulated cane sugar
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter or non-dairy alternative (e.g. Earth Balance® Buttery Sticks)
  • 2 large eggs or egg substitute (like 1/2 cup mashed ripe bananas, apple puree or applesauce, or canned pumpkin)
  • 1/2 cup sour cream (or non-dairy sour cream from Tofutti® or Follow Your Heart® OR plain coconut or soy yogurt like So Delicious®)
  • 1 tsp. vanilla extract, gluten-free
  • 1/2 cup split pea purée
  • 2 Tbs. flaxseed meal (optional, but recommended)
  • 1 Tbs. cinnamon
  • 1 Tbs. baking powder, gluten-free
  • 1 tsp. baking soda
  • 2 cups packed fresh zucchini, unpeeled and grated (approximately 2 zucchini squash)
  • 1 cup chopped pecans or walnuts (optional)
  • Cinnamon-sugar mixture to sprinkle on top

To Prepare & Purée Dried Peas:

Measure and rinse 1/2 cup dried split peas. Add to a large saucepan with 1 1/4 cups of water and bring to a boil. Then reduce to simmer, cover and continue to cook for approximately 30 minutes, or until the peas are quite soft, but not falling apart. Drain, then purée, using a food processor, blender or a potato masher. Add water by tablespoons to purée if necessary to thin it — peas should be the consistency of canned pumpkin when done.

Measure out 1/2 cup of purée for the recipe and if there is any remaining, cover and refrigerate for use in other recipes — it will keep for 3-4 days or longer, if frozen.

To Prepare Quick Bread:

Preheat oven to 350° F (static) or 325° F (convection).

Beat the sugar and butter until fluffy, then add the eggs or egg substitute, sour cream, vanilla and cooled pea purée – mix well.

Sift together the dry ingredients in a large mixing bowl, then pour slowly into the wet ingredient bowl and beat together until integrated. Fold in the zucchini and nuts, if using. The batter will be fairly stiff.

Oil one loaf pan and scoop batter into pan, then smooth with a rubber spatula. If using mini loaf pans, oil 5-6 pans; if using muffin tins, oil 24 muffin tins. Fill each no more than one-half full, then sprinkle the tops with cinnamon-sugar mixture.

Bake large loaf for 50-55 minutes; mini loaf pans for 30-35 minutes; muffins for 20-30 minutes. Test the middles with a toothpick to be sure they are cooked through before removing to cool on a wire rack. Do not overbake!

Enjoy, knowing that even if your family protests that they don’t like peas, they’ll never know you slipped them into this yummy quick bread!

    I am all about hiding healthy foods into desserts & treats. My biggest complaint about GF baked goods is the lack of nutrition(replacing white flour with gf white flour), plus your recipes eliminates the guilt about eating them! Thanks so much for all the great recipes. I plan to try them all.

    I love the idea of putting split pea puree in baked goods. There is little taste impact but great on the nutrients–especially nice protein boost for those of us who are vegans.

    I have been gluten free for nearly three years and it has given me back my life. I have tried many flours as well and Jules Gluten Free Flour is hands down the best and most reliable. I have baked zucchini bread with jules’ flour and it is actually better than traditional wheat flour…as is the case with chocolate chip cookies.

    I love that you are including vegan proteins and ingredients in these recipes – yay! (Secretly of course I anticipate the day when all recipes will be cruelty free without the need for substitutions, but for now I’m glad to see the subs without having to ask for them!) Next, I hope to see more organics being specified . . . never forgetting of course that GMO crops can involve allergens and proteins heretofore unknown to humans (and our GI tracts and immune systems.) And, that pesticides and other chemical agricultural inputs can have lasting effects on us as well.

    Yes, zucchini bread is delicious. It adds a good amount of moisture to the bread. I like to add chopped nuts. A bit more flax seeds gives a nuttier flavor. A bit less sugar gives a great balance to not-too-sweet. Warm with spread, nothin’ better to wake up your tastebuds. Thanks!

    Your flour has offered my family the chance to “normalize” our past family favorite recipes. While I can’t say that “peas” in our zucchini bread was ever on the radar screen, it is quite an interesting idea. I, too, have tried to sneak in those veggie servings in unexpected places. Thanks for the latest idea.

    This recipe looks very doable. I have to admit that the phrase “split peas” has always given me pause — I love fresh peas and fresh pea soup, but split pea soup is not on my *like* list. However, as an ingredient, I bet it works just great. I’m looking forward to zucchini season in the garden to try it!

    You might be on to something. If you increase the fiber and protein content of a dessert item the body takes less of an impact from the sugary aspect of the dessert, so the recipe sounds brilliant and using pea flour also sounds brilliant to me, way to go Jules. I cannot wait to try this recipe, however for me it is way too hot to be thinking of baked desserts

    My dad always planted zucchini in his garden, which I was responsible for picking. The problem was mom’s preparing the squash: it was always over-cooked and slimy (the only food I’ve ever gagged on). If the wee green tubes grew good and big she would frown as I proudly brought the massive veggie-logs into the house. “You know that when they’re that big I can only use them for zucchini bread, Davie.” Mission Accomplished. Now I know how to put this delicious ingredient into all sorts of dishes, but the bread is still my favourite, especially with a Silly-Yak daughter. She & I will enjoy this recipe this very morn (adapting the ingredient to last season’s grated/frozen produce), using our favourite GF flour!

    Thank you so much for putting in the dairy-alternatives in this recipe!! I was really curious because I have never tried this bread before (even before the GF life), and when I saw sour cream in the ingredients I almost did an automatic brain-shutdown until I saw that you actually gave me suggestions for replacements! I have not gone on the quest for dairy-free sour cream yet, so I will keep an eye for those now!!

    I am so glad to see that you no only included healthy peas in the recipe, but that you also included an option for using an egg replacer which isn’t just baking powder & starch, but more healthy veg or fruit. Using applesauce or veg puree makes for extra moist food which still does fall apart like other egg replacers do. Thanks for spreading the word.

    The bean and lentil substitutions I’ve tried since my celiac diagnosis have been amazing. This sweet-bread sounds equally promising. I’d like to try it with honey (at least in part) rather than granulated sugar, though. Honey’s easier to digest (it’s a single carb; sugar is a complex carb) and a healthier sweetener IMHO.
