Zucchini Bread

Zucchini means warm summer days to me. It is called Summer Squash after all.

Ingredients

  • 3 cups flour
  • 2 cups zucchini, grated
  • 1 cup walnuts, chopped
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 3 tsp cinnamon
  • 3 eggs
  • 1 cup vegetable oil
  • 2 cups sugar
  • 3 tsp vanilla

Preparation

Grease 2 8x4 loaf pans and preheat oven to 325F. Combine flour, salt, baking soda and powder, and cinnamon in a bowl. In another mixing bowl, beat together eggs, oil, vanilla and sugar. Add dry mixture to egg mixture and beat some more.
Stir in zucchini and nuts. Pour batter into loaf pans. Bake for 40-60 minutes, until a toothpick comes out clean.
