Zucchini Bread

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 350° F.
  • Spray a 4 x 8 loaf pan with gluten-free cooking spray. I like baking with a glass baking pan.
  • Shred one medium-sized zucchini with a shredder to equal 1 cup of shredded zucchini. Do not peel the zucchini before shredding. Also, do not squeeze out any of the liquid.
  • In a large mixing bowl whisk the eggs together with the oil, sugar, brown sugar and pure vanilla extract.
  • Stir in the salt, baking soda, baking powder, dried lemon peel, cinnamon, gluten-free all-purpose flour.
  • Stir in the shredded zucchini.
  • Pour the zucchini bread batter into a greased loaf pan.
  • Bake on the center rack for 45-55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  • Please watch your zucchini bread because all ovens are different.
  • Cool completely before slicing. Enjoy!
  • Store in an air-tight container for 1-2 days at room temperature or for up to 1 week in the refrigerator.
