ZUCCHINI BREAD


I love the flavor of this bread. It is a great dish to give as a gift or to serve with tea. Somehow because it has zucchini I think it is good for you...there's plenty of sugar that should knock that thought out of my head....whatever!!!!...still love it!!!
Ingredients:
1 cup canola oil
1 tbl unsalted butter
3-1/4 cups flour
3 cups sugar
4 eggs, beaten
1/3 cup water
2 cups grated zucchini
1 tsp lemon juice
1 cup chopped nuts (walnuts or pecans)
1-1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp vanilla
1 tsp nutmeg
2 tsp baking soda
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp chopped cloves
Preheat oven to 350 degrees
In a bowl combine dry ingredients: flour, salt, nutmeg, baking soda, cinnamon, cloves and sugar. In another bowl combine wet ingredients: oil, water, butter, eggs, zucchini, vanilla and lemon juice. Mix wet into dry ingredients then add nuts. Spray two loaf pans with a non-stick spray or grease with butter. Bake for an hour or until a knife goes through it cleanly. If you are making mini loaves, they would bake only about 45 minutes.
For best flavor wrap the bread when cool and let sit overnight.
ENJOY!
