Time 1h20m

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 cups white sugar
1 cup vegetable oil
2 eggs
1 Tablespoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon salt
1 Tablespoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon baking soda

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350*F. Grease two 9x5 bread pans and set aside. Tip: You may want to put a piece of parchment paper on the bottom or nonstick foil. Mine tend to stick a little to the pan when only using cooking spray. In a mixing bowl combine sugar and oil. Mix well. Add eggs, vanilla and salt. Mix well again, scraping sides of bowl as needed. Add cinnamon, baking soda, and baking powder. Slowly add flour until completely combined. Mixture will be thick. Add in diced tomatoes and stir well. Mixture will thin out from moisture tomatoes bring. If adding walnuts, add now. (Photos are with walnuts) Pour half of batter in each pan. Bake for 1 hour or until a toothpick comes out clean from center of bread. Cool for 5 minutes in pan and then remove from pan and cool on a rack.

Tips:

  • Choose the right tomatoes: Select firm, unblemished green tomatoes that are about the size of a golf ball. Avoid tomatoes that are too ripe or have any soft spots.
  • Prepare the tomatoes properly: Wash the tomatoes thoroughly and remove the stems. Cut the tomatoes into 1/2-inch slices or wedges.
  • Use a sharp knife: A sharp knife will help you get clean, even slices of tomatoes. This will also help prevent the tomatoes from getting bruised.
  • Don't overcook the tomatoes: Overcooked tomatoes will become mushy and lose their flavor. Cook the tomatoes just until they are softened, about 5 minutes.
  • Add some spices: To add some extra flavor to your green tomato bread, try adding some spices such as garlic, onion, or basil.

Conclusion:

Green tomato bread is a delicious and versatile bread that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. It's a great way to use up those green tomatoes that you have growing in your garden.
