Preparation
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease a 9 by 5-inch loaf pan.
Step 2
In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar, cinnamon, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Add the zucchini and the nuts and/or dried fruit, if you’re using them. Stir together until the ingredients are well distributed.
Step 3
In a small bowl, combine the eggs, oil, and vanilla. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and combine with a few gentle folding motions. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and place in the middle of the oven. Bake until a toothpick inserted into the middle comes out clean, about 1 hour.
Step 4
Alternatively, this recipe can be made very quickly in a food processor. Dump everything into the bowl and process for 5 to 10 seconds. It’ll look lumpy, but that’s just fine. Bake as above. Be sure the loaves are cool before you wrap them for freezing.
