This is my grandfather's sister's recipe. My mom made this for us all the time growing up, especially in the summertime when zucchini were plentiful from the garden. The original recipe has 2 cups of sugar and 1 teaspoon salt, but I have decreased these and it's still plenty sweet & flavorful.
Mix in one bowl:
3 eggs, well-beaten
1 1/2 cups white sugar
¾ vegetable oil
Mix & sift into above:
2 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
3 teaspoon cinnamon
Add:
2 cups grated zucchini
3 teaspoons vanilla extract
½ cup walnuts, chopped (optional)
Pour into 2 greased and floured loaf pans. Bake at 350° for 40 minutes. Cool thoroughly before removing from pan.
