Zucchini Bread

One of my favorite types of bread is zucchini bread and I have a fabulous recipe to share.  It tastes really good, and actually one of the very few things that I make that I actually like.  It is really easy to prepare and takes less than 20 minutes.   


Ingredients
1 1/2 cup white flour
(I've tried this recipe with 1/2 wheat and 1/2 white and it still tastes great!)
1 cup sugar
1/4 cup oil (I use olive oil)
1 tsp Cinnamon
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp nutmeg
1 beaten egg
1 cup shredded unpeeled zucchini
1/4 tsp of salt
1/2 cup chopped walnuts (if desired)
  • Pre-heat your oven to 350F
  • Grease your loaf pan and set aside (I use Pam, or occasionally a bit of butter)
  • Mix the flour, cinnamon, baking powder and baking soda in a separate bowl.  
  • Make a well in the center of the dry mixture and set aside.
  • In another bowl, add the egg, sugar, zucchini and oil.
  • Mix until moistened (don't over mix).
  • Add all the wet mixture to the dry mixture.  
  • Mix until moist (don't over mix), mixture will be lumpy.
  • Fold in the nuts.
  • Pour batter into your loaf pan
  • Bake at 350F for 50-55 min, depending on your oven
  • Cool before cutting!




Bon Appetit! :)
