Time 1h5m

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 cup granulated sugar
1 cup light brown sugar
1 cup oil ((vegetable or canola oil))
3 large eggs
2 cups grated zucchinis
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
3 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
3 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 cup chopped nuts or chocolate chips ((optional))

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Grease two 8x4'' bread pans with cook spray. I also like to line the bottom of the pans with wax or parchment paper.
  • In a large bowl beat together the white sugar, brown sugar and oil. Add the eggs and vanilla and mix to combine.
  • Grate the entire zucchini (peel on) on the large holes of a box grater, using light pressure. If the zucchini is extra watery use a paper towel to gently squeeze some of the moisture out.
  • In a separate bowl mix together the dry ingredients. Add the dry ingredients to the bowl with the wet ingredients and stir to combine.
  • Pour batter into prepared pans. Bake at 325 degrees F for 50 minutes to 60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center of the loaf comes out clean.
  • Cool in pan for 10 minutes before removing to a wire cooling rack to cool completely.

SPICED ZUCCHINI BREAD

Though we call this a bread, it's really more of a spice cake that uses grated fresh zucchini as a surprise ingredient. Serve it warm for breakfast, with cream cheese or butter and honey.

Yield Makes 2 loaves

Number Of Ingredients 12

3 eggs
3/4 cup vegetable oil
1 1/2 cups sugar
2 cups grated unpeeled zucchini
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
3/4 cup chopped lightly toasted walnuts or pecans
Cream cheese, at room temperature, for serving (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 325°F, and grease two 8x4×2 1/2-inch loaf pans.
  • In the bowl of an electric mixer, beat the eggs until foamy. Add the vegetable oil, sugar, zucchini, and vanilla extract and mix well. Add the flour, cinnamon, baking soda, salt, and baking powder, and mix until well blended. Stir in the nuts. Divide the batter evenly between the prepared loaf pans, and tap them gently on the counter to release any air bubbles.
  • Bake until the loaves have risen and are golden brown and a tester inserted into the center comes out clean, 55-60 minutes. Allow the bread to cool in the pans for 5 minutes; then turn the loaves out onto wire racks to cool.
  • Serve the bread warm, sliced and spread with cream cheese if desired.

Tips:

  • Use a sturdy loaf pan: This will help the bread rise evenly and prevent it from becoming too moist.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing can result in a tough, dense loaf of bread.
  • Use fresh zucchini: Fresh zucchini will yield the best flavor and texture.
  • Grate the zucchini finely: This will help it distribute evenly throughout the batter.
  • Measure your ingredients accurately: This is especially important for the baking soda and baking powder, as too much or too little of either can affect the rise of the bread.
  • Don't overcook the bread: Overcooking can dry out the bread and make it tough.

Conclusion:

Mom's Spiced Zucchini Bread is a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for breakfast, lunch, or a snack. With its moist texture, sweet and spicy flavor, and crunchy walnuts, this bread is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it. So next time you have some extra zucchini on hand, be sure to give this recipe a try!
