Zucchini Bread

I've been craving zucchini bread... I've made almost everything that you can with Zucchini, since I have 2 plants in my garden and a co-worker of Matt's gave him 2!

I ended up with enough for 2 loaves... I made Parmesan Zucchini bread, which the recipe can be found here, with a few other Zucchini recipes from last year.

  

I've always wanted to try a sweet zucchini bread and you know how it goes in my kitchen...  I never follow just one recipe :oP I ended up making a spiced zucchini bread, which turned out amazing!
 


Spiced Zucchini Bread

Ingredients
  • 1 cup shredded zucchini
  • 1 cup light brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons white sugar
  • ½ cup vegetable oil
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 eggs
  • 1½ cups flour
  • ½ tsp baking power
  • ½ tsp baking soda
  •  1½ tsp cinnamon
  • ¾ tsp nutmeg
  • ⅛ tsp cloves
  • ¾ tsp salt
 Directions
  • Preheat oven to 350 °
  • Wisk together brown sugar, white sugar, oil, vanilla and eggs.
  • Add flour, baking power, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves and salt to the liquid mixture. Stir to combine.
  • Stir in zucchini.
  • Pour batter into a prepared bread pan and bake 45 - 55 minutes. 
  • Cool in pan for about 15 minutes. Then remove from pan and cool on baking rack.
  • Once completely cooled, cut into slices 

I am loving the spiced zucchini bread, it came out super moist and has the perfect hint of spice!!
