Family Recipe

Zucchini Bread

3 cups flour
1/2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp salt
1 tsp baking soda
3 eggs beaten
2 1/4 cups sugar
1 cup oil
2 cups grated zucchini
1 cup walnuts (optional)

Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Grease a loaf pan. Combine first four ingredients in a large bowl. Blend eggs, sugar and oil in another bowl. Add to dry ingredients and stir in zucchini and nuts.
Bake for 1 hour. Check with toothpick, if it comes out clean, cool at room temperature.



My mom sent me this recipe from her mom. It was written down illegibly on a note-card so she had to rewrite it before sending. The instructions were pretty brief and did not give very much detail. I added in a couple steps, but to an inexperienced baker, the directions are not very good. Since my grandma has been baking her entire life, she probably just wrote down the recipe quickly so that she could remember but knew the specific techniques and steps in her head.
