Zucchini Bread

This is the best Zucchini Bread I've ever had. My Mother got the recipe from a former ward member and family friend in Idaho, probably 30 years ago.

2 cups grated zucchini
3 eggs, beaten
1 cup vegetable oil
2 cups sugar
3 tsp vanilla

Mix together well. In a seperate bowl mix:

3 cups flour
1 tsp salt
3 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp soda
3/4 tsp nutmeg
1/4 tsp baking powder
1 cup nuts (optional)

Mix together and add cup by cup to the wet mixture. Spread into 2 well greased loaf pans. Bake at 350 for 1 hour. Cool 15 minutes before removing from pans.

In place of zucchini you can also use:
apples
carrots
bananas
cucumbers (seeded and pressed to remove liquid)
pumpkin

This is a copy of the original recipe that my Mother still cooks from. Recipes look like this only when they are much loved by all and cooked often. Enjoy.
