Equipment
  • 2 9x5-inch pans
  • 2 large mixing bowl
Ingredients
  
  • 2 cups of all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon of salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon of ground nutmeg
  • 1 teaspoon of baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon
  • 1 1/2 cups of granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup of vegetable oil
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup of water
  • 2 cups of grated zucchini about 2 medium-sized zucchinis
  • 1 tablespoon of lemon juice
  • 1/2 cup of chopped nuts optional, such as pecans or walnuts
Instructions
 
  • Prep work: First, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and set aside.
    Then, grate your zucchini to have ribbons of zucchini ready for the bread batter.
  • Mix dry ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, salt, nutmeg, baking soda, cinnamon, and sugar.
    Mix well to ensure all ingredients are evenly distributed.
  • Mix wet ingredients: In a separate mixing bowl, whisk together the oil, eggs, water, grated zucchini, and lemon juice.
    Combine wet and dry ingredients: Slowly pour the wet ingredient mixture into the bowl with the dry ingredients, stirring until fully combined.
  • Add nuts: If you're using nuts, now is the time to fold them into the bread batter.
    Prepare loaf pans: Grease your standard loaf pans (two 9x5-inch pans) or mini-loaf pans.
    You may also use parchment paper in the prepared loaf pans for easier removal after baking.
  • Bake: Pour the batter evenly into the prepared loaf pans and place them in the preheated oven.
    For standard loaf pans, bake for about 1 hour, and for mini loaf pans, bake for about 45 minutes.
    To ensure the bread is done, insert a toothpick or tester into the bread, and it should come out clean.
    Remember to let your zucchini bread cool in the pans for a bit before transferring it to a cooling rack.
    Enjoy your delicious Paula Deen Zucchini Bread!
