Ingredients

  • 2 cups grated zucchini with skin
  • 3 eggs
  • 1 cup oil canola recommended but olive oil adds an interesting taste
  • 2 cups sugar
  • ½ cup milk
  • 3 cups flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 3 teaspoons cinnamon
  • ½ cup chopped nuts or chocolate chips optional

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C)
  • Blend together the grated zucchini and eggs, followed by the oil and sugar.
  • Mix until well combined.
  • In a separate bowl mix together the dry ingredients: flour, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon.
  • When well mixed, take turns adding the dry ingredients and milk to the bowl of wet ingredients.
  • Stir or blend well, until the mixture is even.
  • Add chopped nuts or chocolate chips if desired. (If using chocolate chips coat them in flour first so they don't all sink to the bottom).
  • Divide the batter between two small greased loaf pans.
  • Bake at 325F/160C for about 1 hour (or until a toothpick comes out clean).
  • Allow to cool for at least 10 minutes before diving in.
