Print Recipe
- 5 cups shredded zucchini
- 3/4 cup packed brown sugar
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 3 large eggs
- 3/4 cup butter, melted (or oil)
- 2 teaspoons vanilla
- 3 1/2 cups all purpose flour
- 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon ground clove
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease and flour the bottoms of 2 9x5 loaf pans, set aside.
In a large bowl combine the shredded zucchini, sugars, eggs, butter and vanilla. Stir in remaining ingredients just until combined. Divide batter evenly between prepared pans.
Bake for 50-60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool on a wire rack for 10 minutes before removing from pans.
Run a knife around the edge of the bread to loosen from the pan. Remove from pan and cool completely on a wire rack.
