This recipe was shared by a friend from church. This zucchini bread is delicious!!! I think the glaze is the best part to it. Really, you have to try it. I'm sure you'll love it as much as we did. Also, these loaves freeze very well.
INGREDIENTS:
2.5 c flour
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp salt
2 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
1/4 tsp ground cloves
3 eggs
2 c sugar
1 c oil
3 tsp vanilla
2 c grated zucchini
GLAZE (whisk all ingredients together):
1 c powdered sugar
1 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp vanilla
3 tbsp water
Mix the first seven ingredients together and set aside. Mix the last five ingredients together with a mixer and then slowly fold in the dry mix you set aside until all your ingredients are well mixed. Pour the batter evenly unto 4 small greased loaf pans. Bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 40 minutes or until toothpick comes out clean. Let the bread cool for about 20 minutes, then take each loaf and glaze bottom, top, and sides while still warm. Let the loaves dry for 1 hour after you glaze them. Enjoy!
In sweet breads like this, I like to substitute 1/2 the oil with applesauce. You don't notice any difference in taste, but it does make it healthier...just a little bit.
