Old Fashioned Zucchini Bread Recipes

GRANDMA'S BEST ZUCCHINI BREAD

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C). Grease and flour two 9x5 inch loaf pans. Whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and pepper in a bowl until evenly combined; set aside.
• Beat the eggs, vanilla, sugar, and vegetable oil in a mixing bowl until smooth. Fold in the flour, dates, and zucchini until no dry spots remain. Divide the batter between the two prepared loaf pans.
• Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 70 minutes. Cool in the pans for 10 minutes before removing to cool completely on a wire rack.

OLD-FASHIONED ZUCCHINI BREAD

Steps:

• Beat eggs until fluffy; add oil, sugar, vanilla, and zucchini; mix well.
• Combine dry ingredients and add to wet mixture; mix well.
• Toss nuts and/or raisins in a bit of flour then stir into batter.
• Pour batter into two 9x5" loaf pans that have been sprayed on bottoms only with no-stick cooking spray; bake at 350° for 1 hour or until bread tests (a toothpick inserted near center of loaf comes out clean) done; cool loaves for about 10 minutes in pans then loosen sides of loaves (I do this by running a small plastic knife around the edges) and remove from pans; cool completely before slicing.
• NOTE: I include about 3/4 cup whole wheat flour in the total amount.
