This is a good way to use the huge zucchinis that grow so quickly in the month of August……

INGREDIENTS

3 cups all-purpose flour
1 tsp salt
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp baking powder
3 tsp ground cinnamon
3 eggs
1 cup vegetable oil
2 ¼ cups white sugar
3 tsp vanilla extract
2 cups grated zucchini
1 cup chopped walnuts

DIRECTIONS

  1. Grease and flour two 8”x4” pans (I have also used one larger pan….better with two small, have also made muffins from batter)  Preheat oven to 325 F
  2. Mix flour, salt, baking powder, soda, and cinnamon in a bowl.
  3. Beat eggs, oil, vanilla, and sugar together in a large bowl.  Add dry ingredients to the creamed mixture, and beat well.  Stir in zucchini and nuts until well combined.  Pour batter into prepared pans.
Bake for 40 to 60 minutes, or until tester inserted in the center comes out clean.  Cool in pan on rack for 20 minutes.  Remove bread from pan and completely cool.
