Ingredients

1 1/2 Cups All Purpose Flour
1 Teaspoon Baking Powder
1/2 Teaspoon Baking Soda
1/2 Teaspoon Salt
1 Teaspoon Cinnamon
1/2 Teaspoon Nutmeg
1 Teaspoon Vanilla Extract
2 Eggs
1/2 Cup Vegetable Oil
1/2 Cup Granulated Sugar
1/2 Cup Brown Sugar, packed
1 1/2 Cups Grated Zucchini
1/2 Cup Chopped Walnuts ot Pecans

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a standard-sized loaf pan.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, ground cinnamon, and ground nutmeg. Set aside.
In a large bowl, beat the eggs until they are light and frothy. Add the granulated sugar, brown sugar, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract. Mix well until all the ingredients are combined.
Gradually add the dry ingredients from step 2 to the wet ingredients in the large bowl. Stir until just combined. Do not over-mix.
Gently fold in the grated zucchini and chopped walnuts or pecans (if using). The zucchini will add moisture to the bread and keep it fluffy and moist.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, spreading it evenly. Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for approximately 1 hour, or until a toothpick inserted into the centre of the bread comes out clean. The top of the bread should be golden brown.
Once baked, remove the loaf pan from the oven and let it cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Then transfer the zucchini bread to a wire rack to cool completely.
Once cooled, slice the zucchini bread into 10 equal slices. Serve the zucchini bread as is, or you can spread some butter or cream cheese on each slice for added flavour. Enjoy! :)

Make sure it is completely cooled before storing. For longer shelf life, refrigerate the zucchini bread in an airtight container. It can stay fresh for up to a week in the refrigerator. Before serving, you can warm the slices in the microwave for a few seconds to restore their softness. u003c/liu003e
