Mom's Zucchini Bread Recipe

Ingredients:

• 3 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon (or to taste)
• 3 large eggs
• 1 cup vegetable oil
• 2 cups white sugar
• 3 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 2 cups shredded zucchini
• 1 cup chopped walnuts

Directions:

Step 1: Gather all ingredients.

Step 2: Preheat the oven to 325F (165C). Grease and flour two 8x4-inch loaf pans.

Step 3: Sift the flour, salt, baking powder, baking soda, and cinnamon together in a large bowl.

Step 4: In a separate large bowl, beat the eggs, oil, sugar, and vanilla together with an electric mixer until well combined.

Step 5: Add the sifted flour mixture to the wet ingredients and beat until fully incorporated.

Step 6: Stir in the shredded zucchini and chopped walnuts until evenly mixed.

Step 7: Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pans.

Step 8: Bake in the preheated oven for 40 to 60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Step 9: Let the loaves cool in the pans on a wire rack for about 20 minutes.

Step 10: Run a table knife around the edges of the pans to loosen the loaves. Invert carefully onto a wire rack and allow them to cool completely.
