2 1/2 cups grated raw zucchini
1 1/4 cup organic sugar
3/4 cup sunflower oil
3 eggs
1 tsp organic vanilla extract
2 1/2 cups unbleached flour
2 tsp aluminum free baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp ground cloves
1 cup chopped walnuts
Preheat oven to 350 F. Butter and flour a 9x5 inch loaf pan. Grate zucchini and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, beat together: sugar, oil, eggs, and vanilla. Fold in the grated zucchini.
In a separate bowl sift together the flour, baking powder, banking soda, salt, cinnamon, and cloves. Fold into batter mixture just until all moistened. Fold in the chopped nuts.
Pour batter into the prepared loaf pan. Bake for 1 hour and 10 minutes or until knife inserted into the center comes out clean. Cool before slicing. Enjoy with a cup of your favorite tea.
Try to use as many organic ingredients as you can.
