Zucchini Bread

I'm still not feeling so great but here is a recipe for zucchini bread.




3 extra large eggs
½ cup canola oil
½ cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted
1 ¾ cups sugar
2 cups zucchini, shredded
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
3 cups unbleached all purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon baking powder
1 ½ teaspoon cinnamon

Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Prepare 2 loaf pans. (I line the pans with parchment paper and spray canola oil on the sides.)

In a large mixing bowl, whisk eggs until foamy. Add oil, butter, sugar, zucchini and vanilla and mix well.

In another large mixing bowl, combine flour, salt, baking soda, baking powder and cinnamon. Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour wet ingredients into dry ingredients. Using a bowl scraper (or rubber spatula) carefully fold until combine. Do not overmix or you will get tunneling in the finished product.

Divide batter between two loaf pans and bake approximately 60 to 70 minutes of until tester comes out clean. Eat.
