This amazing zucchini bread recipe is made healthier with spelt flour, a combination of coconut sugar and zero-calorie erythritol sweetener instead of refined sugar, and Brazil nuts--a good source of healthful fats, protein, fiber, and selenium. Tawny port soaked raisins add a delicious dimension to the bread that you should not pass up.
