Zucchini Bread

In our recipe box we have recipes for zucchini cookies, frosted zucchini snacks, zucchini and cheese layers, zucchini stuffing casserole, zucchini and eggplant fettuccine, zucchini pizza and even zucchini pancakes. We've tried most of them ONCE. I must say though the bread and the cookies are scrumptious! The other night, I got caught in my zucchini zone. I find myself here  once or twice each fall.  Here is the Zucchini Bread recipe straight from Birdman's kitchen.

*Beat 3 eggs in mixer until foamy
*Beat in 2 cups of sugar
*2 cups shredded zucchini
*3/4 cup of vegetable oil
*1 tablespoon vanilla
* 3 cups flour
*1 tablespoon baking powder
*2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
*1 teaspoon baking soda
*Throw in liberal handfuls of raisins and walnuts
*Pour batter into two 9x5x3  greased pans
*Bake at 350 degrees for 1 hour and ten minutes. Check if done. Cool in pan for 10 minutes. Cool completely on a wire rack.
ENJOY... and you will. I promise.

  1. Sounds delicious even though I'm a bit doubtful about the cinnamon! I'd add olives!

  3. Zucchini Zone! Gardeners are always giving away zucchini from their gardens. PS no oils at Local Buzz, only my little sketches...c'est la vie...

    1. FYI.....you do not taste the Zucchini because basically, Zucchini has no taste of it's own. IMHO ;-)
