Zucchini Bread

We should have zucchini ready in our garden by the beginning of next week, so here's my favorite zucchini bread recipe. It makes two loaves.

3 cups flour
1 tsp salt
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp baking powder
3 tsp cinnamon
3 eggs
1 cup oil
2 1/4 cups sugar
3 tsp vanilla
2 cups grated zucchini
walnuts if you want 'em

Grease and flour two loaf pans. Preheat oven to 325.

Sift together flour, salt, baking powder, baking soda, and cinnamon. Set aside. Beat eggs, oil, vanilla, and sugar in a large bowl. Stir in the sifted ingredients and beat well. Stir in zucchini (and nuts) until well combined. (If you're using an electric mixer, you'll need to scrape the sides of the bowl frequently and well.) Pour batter into pans and bake for 40 to 60 minutes or until a fork inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool in pan for 10-20 minutes, then remove from pan and cool completely on a rack.
