Ingredients
  

Ingredients
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 cups grated zucchini (about 2 medium zucchinis)
  • 1/2 cup chopped walnuts or pecans (optional)

Method
 

Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan and set it aside.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Set aside.
  3. In a large bowl, beat the vegetable oil, granulated sugar, and brown sugar together until well combined. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
  4. Gently fold the grated zucchini into the wet ingredients until evenly distributed.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing just until combined. Be careful not to overmix. If using, fold in the chopped nuts.
  6. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  7. Allow the bread to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.

Notes

Use freshly grated zucchini for best results. Customize with mix-ins like chocolate chips or raisins. Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 3 months.
