Ingredients
- 3 cups all-purpose flour or use gluten-free flour
- 1 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1 tsp fine sea salt
- 2 tsp ground cinnamon
- 3 large eggs room temperature
- 1 cup extra light olive oil or canola or vegetable oil
- 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
- 1 Tbsp vanilla extract
- 3 cups grated zucchini* from 1 lb or 2 medium zucchini
- 1 cup chopped walnuts or pecans optional
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Butter two 8x4-inch metal loaf pans and line with parchment paper for easier lifting.
- In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon.
- In a separate large mixing bowl, add eggs, oil, sugar, and vanilla. Whisk until very well blended. Add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients and whisk until well combined and smooth.
- Grate the zucchini using the large holes of a box grater. Add zucchini to the batter along with nuts (if using) and fold until well incorporated.
- Pour the batter into your prepared pans and bake in a preheated oven at 350˚F for 50-60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Cool in the pans for 10-15 minutes then transfer to a wire rack and cool completely to room temperature.
