Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.  
  In a large bowl, combine zucchini, banana, vanilla, and 1 tablespoon water.
  In a medium bowl, stir together flour, sugar, carob powder or cocoa, baking 
soda, and salt.  Add dry ingredients to wet ingredients and mix until well 
blended.  Batter will be very stiff. Spread in a 9 by 13-inch baking dish, 
either nonstick or lightly sprayed with nonstick spray.  Bake until a 
toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, about 35 minutes.  Cool.  
Dust lightly with sifted confectioner's sugar before slicing.   
They can also be frosted with nonfat cream cheese frosting - following recipe.
