Zucchini Bread is a moist, flavorful quick bread made with grated zucchini, warm spices, and a touch of sweetness. Perfect as a snack or breakfast treat, it’s both comforting and deliciously satisfying.
Ingredients:
nonstick cooking spray, for greasing the loaf pans
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon salt
2 cups sugar
1 cup vegetable oil
3 large eggs, beaten
3 cups grated zucchini
1/2 cup frozen grated coconut, thawed
1/2 cup walnuts, chopped
1/4 cup maraschino cherries
Directions:
Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Grease two 5-by-9-inch loaf pans with cooking spray.
In a mixing bowl, sift together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon and salt. Mix the sugar, oil and beaten eggs in a separate bowl and add to the flour mixture. Stir in the grated zucchini, coconut, nuts and cherries.
Pour the batter into the loaf pans and bake until a toothpick inserted into the center of the loaf comes out clean, about 1 hour. Cool for 10 minutes before removing the loaves from the pans. Turn the breads out onto wire racks to cool completely.
