Dad drove a logging truck through the beautiful forests and farmlands of northern Idaho's panhandle. Some days I would join him, and Mom would send along this moist bread for us to snack on.

Ingredients

3 cups all-purpose flour
2-1/4 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1-1/4 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
3 eggs
2 cups sugar
1 cup canola oil
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
2 cups shredded zucchini
1 cup chopped walnuts

Directions

In a large bowl, combine the flour, cinnamon, salt, baking soda, baking powder and nutmeg; set aside. In another large bowl, lightly beat eggs; stir in sugar, oil and vanilla. Add dry ingredients; stir just until moistened. Fold in zucchini and nuts (batter will be stiff).
Pour into two greased and floured 8x4-in. loaf pans. Bake at 350° for 50-60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool in pans 10 minutes before removing to a wire rack.

My favorite zucchini recipe for years now. Can’t believe there aren’t more reviews. The spice is just right and I use them in other quick bread recipes now with great results. Has that bakery flavor to it that along with the moistness makes it outstanding. Thank you for such a good recipe!

This is the first year I planted Zucchini so was looking for good recipes -- this one is a keeper! I made for Son and Grandson and the first loaf went very, very quickly. Great flavor and very moist

This makes a wonderful quick bread. The spice and sweetness is just right, and very moist. Disappeared at work very quickly!
