2 loaves of bread
30 minutes
1 hour 20 minutes
A great slice of bread morning, day or night...
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
3 teaspoons ground cinnamon
3 eggs
1 cup canola oil
2¼ cups granulated sugar
3 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
2 cups zucchini (about 1 large one), grated
2 fresh lemons, zest only
2 (3 ounces) packages Melissa's Dried Blueberries
Preheat the oven to 325ºF.
Spray 2 loaf pans (8 x 4 inch) with non-stick cooking spray. Next, line the pans with parchment paper and spray again with the cooking spray.
In a bowl, sift together the flour, salt, baking powder, baking soda and cinnamon. Set aside.
In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with a whisk, cream together the eggs, canola oil, vanilla extract and sugar. When the mixture is done, it should be smooth and white-ish in color.
Next slowly add the sifted ingredients. Mix until smooth and well combined. Remove the whisk and attach a paddle to the mixer. Add the zucchini, lemon zest and blueberries and mix until well combined.
Pour equal amounts of the batter into the prepared loaf pans. Bake for 1 hour and 20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Cool on a rack, in the pans, for 10 minutes. Remove loaves from the baking pans and remove the parchment paper to cool completely on the rack.
