This is my mother’s recipe for zucchini bread and there are three generations of my family who can vouch for how incredible this tastes.
Ingredients:
2 2/3 cups sugar
2/3 cup butter
3 cups shredded zucchini (about 3 medium)
2/3 cup water
4 eggs
3 1/3 cups flour
2 teaspoons baking soda
1 ½ teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon nutmeg
2 teaspoons vanilla
½ teaspoon baking powder
2/3 cup chopped nuts
2/3 cup raisins
Directions:
Heat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease two loaf pans, 9 x 5 x 3 inches.
Mix sugar and butter in a large mixing bowl. Add zucchini, water and eggs. Stir in flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, vanilla and baking powder. Add nuts and raisins.
Pour into pans and bake 60-70 minutes, until a wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool pans on a wire rack about 10 minutes, then gently loosen the loaves from the pan with a sharp knife or spatula. Remove from pans and let cool before slicing.
