Ingredients

  • 4 cups Zucchini shredded
  • 2 cups Sugar
  • 3 large Eggs
  • 1 cup Butter melted
  • 1 tablespoon Lemon Juice
  • 3 ⅓ cups All-Purpose Flour
  • 1 teaspoon Cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • ½ teaspoon Baking Powder
  • 1 teaspoon Baking Soda
  • ½ teaspoon Allspice ground

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Grease two 8" x 4" pans, or 6 mini loaf pans.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded zucchini, sugar, eggs, melted butter, and lemon juice and mix well.
  • In a separate mixing bowl, combine the flour, cinnamon, salt, baking powder, baking soda, and allspice and whisk together.
  • Combine the flour mixture with the zucchini mixture and stir together with a rubber spatula, mixing just until combined.
  • Divide the batter evenly between your prepared bread pans, then sprinkle a little extra sugar on the top of each loaf (optional).
  • Bake 8"x4" loaves in a preheated 350 degree oven for 50-60 minutes (mini loaves for 35-40 minutes), or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean and the internal temperature reaches 200 degrees F.
  • Remove from the oven and cool on a rack for 20 minutes, then gently run a knife around the edges of the bread and tease the bread out of the pan. Enjoy!
