Time 2h

Yield 2 Loaves, 20 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 cups shredded zucchini
2 cups sugar
1 cup cooking oil
3 cups flour
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
3 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon ginger
1 teaspoon ground cloves
1 cup chopped nuts

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven 325 F.
  • Grease and flour 2 5x9 loaf pans or 4 mini loaf pans.
  • Shred the zucchini into thin strips either by hand or a food processor attachment.
  • Press the zucchini dry by putting it in a strainer and press down (in the sink or outside) with a few paper towels until the towels don't really absorb much more water. (This is so the zucchini absorb the ingredients rather than make the bread mushy with all their water).
  • In a large mixing bowl mix sugar, oil, eggs, vanilla and zucchini.
  • Sift (the sifting is important!) flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and spices (sometimes I add more of the spices if I'm making the loaf for me).
  • Add dry mixture to wet zucchini mixture and beat with a fork until well blended.
  • Fold in chopped nuts.
  • Pour into the loaf pans.
  • Bake at 325 F for 1 hour, or 45 min if you're using mini loaf pans.
  • Check every 20 minutes for doneness with a toothpick or knife. I like it when its just starts to get crispy on top, but still has a little shine to it.
  • Cool 20 minutes in pans on a rack, then remove from pans.

Tips:

  • Choose the right zucchini: For the best flavor and texture, use medium-sized zucchini that are fresh and firm.
  • Grate the zucchini: Grating the zucchini helps to evenly distribute the moisture and makes it easier to mix into the batter.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter can result in a tough, dense bread. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Use a loaf pan that is the right size: A 9x5 inch loaf pan is the perfect size for this recipe. If you use a smaller pan, the bread will be too thick and may not cook evenly.
  • Bake the bread at the right temperature: The bread should be baked at 350°F (175°C) for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Let the bread cool before slicing: Let the bread cool for at least 10 minutes before slicing. This will help to prevent the bread from crumbling.

Conclusion:

Aunt Adelaide's Zucchini Bread is a delicious and easy-to-make bread that is perfect for breakfast, lunch, or a snack. It is also a great way to use up leftover zucchini. With its moist texture, sweet flavor, and nutty crunch, this bread is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it. So next time you have some zucchini on hand, give this recipe a try. You won't be disappointed!
