Zucchini Bread

Our garden has been quite plentiful with zucchini. So I finally got a recipe from my mom to make some zucchini bread. Its baking now as I type this and it smells so good. I cannot wait to try it.

Step 1. Grate the zucchini. I got a chance to use a little grater I picked up at Target. I like it because, unlike square graters, I can clean the back side super easy.

Step 2. Add the other ingredients. Sugar, eggs, flour, baking powder and soda, and what I believe will make this so yummy, brown sugar, nutmeg, cinnamon and vanilla. Yum!
Im a very messy baker, Ive learned to accept it, and just clean up at the end.

Step 3. Mix all the ingredients and bake at 350 for 25-35 minutes. And enjoy the smell while it bakes.

I love baking and using the vegetables that we have grown in the garden. Here is the recipe I used: 

3 eggs, heated 

1/2 cup oil

1 cup white sugar

1 cup brown sugar 

2 3/4 cup flour

the recipe calls for 1/4 cup of powdered milk, I used 1/4 of 1/2 and 1/2 because I didnt have any powdered milk. 

2 tsp baking soda

1/2 tsp baking powder

3 tsp cinnamon

1/2 nutmeg

3 tsp vanilla

1 cup chopped nuts

2 cups of grated zucchini with peal. 

Combine well and bake in 2 well greased load pans - 350 degrees for 1 hour. 

ohh yeah. here are some pictures of the finished product. Its so yummy, the cinnamon and nutmeg make it a perfect companion to some chai tea.
