Zucchini Bread

Serving Size:

1 loaf

Ingredients:

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 cup whole wheat flour
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 2 teaspoons cinnamon, ground
• 1/2 teaspoon allspice
• 3 eggs
• 3/4 cup vegetable oil
• 1 cup sugar
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 2 cups zucchini, grated

Method:

Preheat the oven to 350°F and line and grease a loaf tin (6 in x 9 in).

In a medium size bowl, sift the first 7 ingredients.

In a large bowl add eggs, oil, sugar and vanilla. Whisk until well combined and thick (approx 1 minute).

Add dry ingredients to wet mixture and beat to combine. Add zucchini and fold until well combined.

Pour into loaf tin about 3/4 full and bake for one hour or until skewer comes out clean.

Notes:

• If your loaf pan is slightly too small for the mixture, make the remaining batter into muffins. (Bake for 20 minutes.)
• Hand mixing will make the loaf lighter.
• Zucchini bread freezes well and tastes great slightly toasted and spread with butter for an after school snack.
