I am in Nashville this weekend having SO much fun meeting lots of fabulous bloggers at Blissdom, but I wanted to share this recipe that I made last week. I was so excited when I opened my Worden Farm Box last week and discovered 4 delicious looking zucchini way down at the bottom of the box. It was the perfect excuse to make a big batch of homemade zucchini bread, something I’ve wanting to do for months!
Homemade Zucchini Bread
4 medium zucchini 4 cups all-purpose flour 2 1/2 cups whole wheat flour 1 tablespoon baking soda 1 tablespoon baking powder 2 tablespoons ground cinnamon 8 eggs 1 1/2 cups vegetable oil 3 1/2 cups white sugar 2 tablespoons vanilla chocolate chips (optional)1. Preheat oven to 325. Grease and flour 4 loaf pans. Grate zucchini to make approximately 6 cups; set aside.
2. In a large bowl, mix together flour, baking soda, baking powder, & cinnamon. In separate bowl or Kitchenaid, beat together eggs, oil, sugar & vanilla. Add dry ingredients to wet mixture and mix until combined. Divide mixture into 4 pans.
3. (Optional) Ccver bottom of pan with semi-sweet chocolate chips before adding mixture for black-bottomed zucchini bread.
One of things I love the most about this recipe is that makes a LOT of zucchini bread–more than enough to share! What a great excuse to pop in on a friend or surprise a neighbor. After they cooled, I just wrapped them in saran wrap then found some cute scraps of fabric, brown kraft paper, & ribbon to make them pretty. So fun!
