Zucchini Bread- yummy!

This was this morning's breakfast, with the gloomy summer we've been having at least I can use the oven without cooking our house!


Ingredients
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 3 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 3 eggs
  • 1 cup vegetable oil
  • 2 1/4 cups white sugar
  • 3 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 2 cups grated zucchini
  • 1 cup chopped walnuts (if you like, but not necessary)

Directions

1. Grease and flour two 8 x 4 inch pans. Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).               
2. Sift flour, salt, baking powder, soda, and cinnamon together in a bowl.               

3. Beat eggs, oil, vanilla, and sugar together in a large bowl. 

4. Add sifted ingredients to the creamed mixture, and beat well. (or the other way round- lol)

5.  Stir in zucchini and nuts until well combined.

6. Pour batter into prepared pans.

       

7. 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.
