Ingredients
Scale
- 3 1/4 cups flour (half and half whole wheat and white)
- 1 1/2 tsp. salt
- 1 tsp. nutmeg
- 2 tsp. baking soda
- 1 tsp. cinnamon
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 cup canola oil
- 4 eggs, beaten
- 1/3 cup Crosby’s Fancy Molasses
- 1/3 cup water
- 2 cups grated zucchini (only peeled if the skin is tough)
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice or vanilla
- 1 cup chopped nuts and/or seeds (walnuts, pecans, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, slivered almonds, coconut)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- In a large bowl, combine flour, salt, nutmeg, baking soda, and cinnamon.
- In a separate bowl, combine oil and sugar. Beat in eggs one at a time. Add molasses and water then stir in zucchini and lemon juice or vanilla.
- Pour wet ingredients into dry, mixing gently. Gently fold in nuts and /or seeds.
- Pour batter into two standard loaf pans that have been well greased. (I also line the bottoms of my pans with parchment paper so the loaves come out more easily after baking).
