Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan and set it aside.
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, ground cinnamon, and salt.
In another bowl, beat together the granulated sugar, brown sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract until well combined.
Stir in the vegetable oil and applesauce until the mixture is smooth.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring just until combined.
Fold in the grated zucchini until evenly distributed in the batter.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 55 to 60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Allow the zucchini bread to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
