Zucchini Bread- YUM!
I love zucchini bread only, I never ever make it. I looked on allrecipes.com and found a recipe that like 10,000 people rated the recipe a 5 star recipe, so I decided I probably needed to try it out. It was super easy and fast and we ate 2 loaves in 2 days... it was that good.
3 eggs
1 cup vegetable oil
2 cups white sugar
2 cups grated zucchini (I used 2 1/2 cups which was 2 zucchinis)
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
3 cups all-purpose flour
3 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup chopped walnuts (I didn't use nuts)
I also added a 1/2 teaspoon of nutmeg.
Crunchy Strudel Topping:
1 cup brown sugar
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons butter or margarine
2 teaspoons cinnamon
1/2 cup chopped walnuts (once again, no nuts)
1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Grease and flour two 8x4 inch loaf pans.
2. In a large bowl, beat eggs until light and frothy. Mix in oil and sugar. Stir in zucchini and vanilla. Combine flour, cinnamon, soda, baking powder, salt and nuts; stir into the egg mixture. Divide batter into prepared pans.
3. Sprinkle with topping mixture and bake for 60 to 70 minutes, or until done. I also put some foil on top of the loaves toward the end of backing to prevent the top from getting too brown... may or may not be necessary for you.
