walnut-zucchini bread

3 large eggs
2 cups sugar
1 cup vegetable oil
2 cups grated zucchini
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
3 cups flour (I add 2 Tablespoons for high altitude)
2 teaspoons cinnamon
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
3/4 cup chopped walnuts

1. Preheat oven to 350°. Grease 2 loaf pans (9 in.). In a large bowl, beat eggs until frothy. Add sugar, oil, zucchini, and vanilla and stir until well mixed. Add flour, cinnamon, salt, baking powder, baking soda, and nuts; stir until just combined.

2. Pour batter into pans. Bake until a toothpick inserted in the center of each loaf comes out clean, 50 to 60 minutes. Cool loaves 10 minutes in pans, then turn out onto a rack and cool completely before slicing.

Prep and Cook Time: 75 minutes.
Yield: Makes 8 servings; 16 slices
