Recipe Of The Month - Zucchini Bread!

Last August in our Newsletter I gave you our Chocolate Zucchini Bread recipe. So, I thought this year I would give you the other Zucchini Bread recipe that is always a hit at our house!

Ingredients:

  • 3 eggs
  • 1 cup oil
  • 2 cups sugar
  • 2 cups grated raw zucchini
  • 3 cups flour
  • 1 tsp. salt
  • 1 tsp. baking powder
  • 1 tsp. baking soda
  • 2 tsp cinnamon
  • 3 tsp. vanilla
  • 1/2 cup chopped nuts - pecans or walnuts (optional)
Directions:

1. Prepare pans (either greased and floured loaf pans (2) or in a 9”x13”).
2. Wash Zucchini. Cut off ends and slice open lengthwise. Spoon out and discard seed pulp in center. Grate.
3. Mix the eggs, oil, and spices together.
4. Add sugar. Mix. Then add flour and mix well.
5. Now add your zucchini and mix by hand. (Don’t over mix or the Zucchini will ball up around your spoon.)
6. Pour into prepared pans.
7. Bake at 350 degrees. (Loaf Pans-45 min., 9” x 13” pan-35 minutes)
8. This recipe is great still warm from the oven with butter on it. It also freezes well if you want a taste of summer when the winter winds are blowing outside.
