This spiced zucchini bread recipe is super moist and flavorful, loaded with cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves. I tried several recipes before I asked my mom for her recipe. I get huge zucchini at the farmers market every Saturday, and this is the perfect use for them. It reminds me of my childhood. The loaves can be frozen and are great as gifts. People love them.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups white sugar

  • 1 cup vegetable oil

  • 3 large eggs

  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, or more to taste

  • 2 cups shredded zucchini

  • 3 cups all-purpose flour

  • 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon

  • 1 teaspoon salt

  • 1 teaspoon baking soda

  • 1 teaspoon ground nutmeg

  • ¼ teaspoon baking powder

  • ¼ teaspoon ground cloves

  • ½ cup chopped walnuts (Optional)

  • ½ cup raisins (Optional)

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease two 9x5-inch loaf pans.

  2. Beat together sugar, oil, eggs, and vanilla in a large bowl until smooth. Fold in zucchini. Stir together flour, cinnamon, salt, baking soda, nutmeg, baking powder, and cloves in a separate bowl; gradually stir into sugar mixture until well combined. Fold in walnuts and raisins.
