Zucchini Bread

I had zucchini bread a few weeks back, and I remembered how much I love it.  So today I decided to try my hand at making it.  It's not a complicated recipe, but there is a good bit of prep work.  You'll need the following ingredients:


  • 3 1/4 cups flour
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 2 teaspoons baking soda
  • 3 cups sugar
  • 1 cup vegetable oil
  • 4 eggs
  • 1/3 cup water
  • 2 cups grated zucchini
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 1 cup chopped pecans
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.


Mix the dry ingredients (flour, salt, nutmeg, baking soda, cinnamon, and sugar) in a large bowl.  Mix the wet ingredient (oil, eggs, water, lemon juice) and zucchini in a medium bowl.


Add the wet to the dry, and mix until everything is moistened.  Fold in the nuts, then transfer to two greased loaf pans.







Bake for 1 hour.  While the bread is baking, take a look at your cat.
