Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking soda
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground nutmeg
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 2 cups Granulated sugar
- 1 cup Vegetable oil
- 3 pieces Large eggs
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 3 cups Zucchini, finely grated (about 2 medium zucchinis)
- 1 cup Chopped pecans or walnuts (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and lightly flour two 9x5-inch loaf pans or line them with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.
In a separate large bowl, combine the granulated sugar, vegetable oil, and eggs. Whisk until smooth and well combined.
Stir in the vanilla extract and grated zucchini into the wet mixture.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring gently until just combined. Avoid overmixing, as this can make the bread dense.
If using, fold in the chopped pecans or walnuts for added texture and flavor.
Divide the batter evenly between the two prepared loaf pans, smoothing the tops with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 55-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove the pans from the oven and allow the loaves to cool in the pans for about 10 minutes.
Carefully transfer the loaves to a wire rack and let them cool completely before slicing and serving.
