Ingredients

• 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 3 eggs

Preparation

Step 1

1.Preheat oven to 300 degrees F for small loaf pans or 325 degrees F for large loaf pan or muffins.
2.Blend the dry ingredients.
3.Make a well (or hole) in the center and pour in the eggs, oil, honey and vanilla. Stir just until mixed – do not overmix.
4.Fold in the grated zucchini and chopped nuts if using. Pour batter into greased loaf pan(s) or muffin holders and bake until a toothpick comes clean in the top/center of the loaf or muffin.
- If using smaller pans bake for 30 – 40 minutes. I was able to fill four of my small loaf pans.
- For one larger loaf pan bake for 50 – 60 minutes.
- For muffins bake for 15 – 20 minutes.
Enjoy and don’t forget to freeze the leftovers!
