This is the classic zucchini bread recipe that we have made for the past 40 years. It is moist and spicy and freezes well. Ingredients:
3 eggs |
1 cup oil |
2 cups sugar |
3 teaspoons vanilla |
2 cups zucchini ; grated (unpeeled, remove seeds if using giant zukes) |
3 cups flour |
1/4 teaspoon baking powder |
1 teaspoon baking soda |
1 teaspoon salt |
3 teaspoons cinnamon |
1 cup walnuts ; chopped |
Directions:
1. Combine eggs, oil, sugar and vanilla. 2. Stir in zucchini. 3. Add dry ingredients and stir to combine. 4. Fold in walnuts. 5. Pour batter into two greased and floured 9 x 5-inch loaf pans. 6. Bake at 325 degrees for about 1 hour or until done. 7. Cool in pan 10 minutes, then turn out onto rack to cool completely. 8. Makes 2 loaves. 9. Slices better the next day. 10. Store tightly wrapped. 11. NOTES : During the summer when zucchini is plentiful, freeze the freshly grated zucchini in heavy duty freezer bags in 2 cup amounts. To have fresh zucchini bread during the winter, simply thaw a bag of zucchini, squeeze out the excess water and proceed with the recipe. |
