Ingredients
Scale
Wet Ingredients:
- 3 eggs
- 2 cups granulated sugar
- 1 cup neutral vegetable oil
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Dry Ingredients:
- 3 cups plain flour
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
Additional Ingredients:
- 1 cup sour cream
- 2 cups grated zucchini
- 1 cup chopped walnuts
Instructions
- Step 1: Prepare the Oven and Pans Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). While the oven is heating, lightly grease two 9×5-inch loaf pans to prevent the zucchini bread from sticking.
- Step 2: Mix the Wet Ingredients In a large bowl, beat together the granulated sugar and neutral vegetable oil until well blended. Add the eggs one at a time, beating thoroughly. Stir in the vanilla extract until smooth.
- Step 3: Combine Dry Ingredients Sift together the flour, baking soda, salt, and baking powder in a separate bowl.
- Step 4: Make the Batter Gradually blend the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients in two batches. Alternate adding the wet mix and sour cream. Fold in the zucchini and walnuts. Pour into loaf pans.
- Step 5: Bake the Zucchini Bread Bake at 350°F for about 1 hour and 20 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Cool in pans before transferring to a wire rack.
Notes
- For added crunch, sprinkle extra walnuts on top before baking.
- Allow the bread to rest overnight for best texture and flavor.
