Mom's Zucchini Bread

Hello crazies!  Happy Saturday!  I hope everyone survived the week ok, and that you are finding peace and relaxation with your family this weekend.  Our recipe today is called "Mom's" but it is someone elses mom lol.  This recipe is delicious and if my Mom had come up with it, I would have named it the same thing ;-).  I had to make two changes and they worked fine.  I must admit there are probably hundreds of zucchini bread recipes out there but I'm just saying this is one of the really, really good ones!  Enjoy.  See ya next week!

Mom's Zucchini Bread

3 Cups all purpose flour

1 teaspoon each of salt, baking soda and baking powder

3 teaspoons ground cinnamon

3 eggs

1 Cup vegetable oil (I used unsweetened apple sauce)

2 1/4 cups white sugar

3 teaspoons vanilla extract

2 Cups grated zucchini

1 Cup chopped walnuts (oops, I only had pecans)

Grease and flour two 8 x 4 inch pans.  Preheat oven to 325°.

Sift flour, salt, baking powder, soda and cinnamon together in a bowl.

Beat eggs, oil, vanilla and sugar together in a large bowl.  Add sifted ingredients to the creamed mixture and beat well.  Stir in zucchini and nuts until well combined.  Pour batter into prepared pans.

Bake for 40-60 minutes, or until tester inserted in the center comes out clean.  Cool in pan on rack for 20 minutes.  Remove bread from pan, and completely cool.
