Super Yummy Zucchini Bread Recipe

This is one of my all time faves. I remember my mom making several loaves for neighbors at the holidays and as I kid I ate this buttered! It's a sweet bread, so it's really like a cake. These days, I skip the butter (it really doesn't need it and I don't need the fat ;). This bread is moist and soft inside with a delicious crust on top. My kids love it too...green flecks and all!

Ingredients:
3 eggs
2 cups sugar
1 cup vegetable oil
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
2 cups shredded zucchini (I leave the skin on and use a cheese grater)
3 cups all purpose flour
1 teaspoon cinnamon

Directions: In a large bowl beat eggs until foamy, add all other ingredients. Mix will be thick and look kind of slimy (don't worry...trust me, it's good).  Pour into a greased loaf pan (one large or two small). Bake at 350 degrees for one hour and forty minutes. Cool, remove from pan (I loosen the sides with a spatula first) and serve.  Yum!
