Zucchini Nut Loaf
This recipe makes two loaves
3 c. of peeled grated zucchini ( I don't bother peeling just wash it thoroughly)
2 c. sugar
4 lightly beaten eggs
1 c. vegetable oil
3 c. flour
2 t. baking powder
1 t. baking soda
1/2 t. salt
1 1/2 t. cinnamon
1 c. chopped walnut
1/2 c. golden raisins
!/2 c. chopped pecans
In a large mixing bowl beat together the zucchini, sugar and eggs. Add the vegetable oil and mix well. In a seperate bowl stir together sifted flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and cinnamon. Fold in nuts and raisins. Pour into greased or parchment paper lined 9x5x3 loaf pans. Bake at 325 degrees for about 60 to 70 minutes, remove from the pans. Cool thoroughly on a rack and store in an air-tight container.
This loaf freezes well. The next time I make this I think I'll try adding some dried cranberries or...
