List of Ingredients
3 eggs
1 cup canola oil
2 cups sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 cups zucchini, grated
2/3 cup carrots, grated
3 cups flour
1 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 cup walnuts
3 ounces sun-dried berries, I like cranberries or "Craisins"
Recipe
Preheat your oven to 325 degrees. Grease and flour 2-9x4 inch bread pans.
Beat the eggs slightly and add the oil, sugar, and vanilla. Mix well. Add the grated zucchini and carrots and mix well. Sift the flour, salt, cinnamon, baking powder and soda together.
Add to the egg mixture and blend until all ingredients are thoroughly combined.
Add the nuts and berries. Stir to distribute evenly.
Pour the mixture into the floured bread pans and bake for 65-75 minutes until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Once the loaves have rested for about 5 minutes remove them from the pans to a cooling rack. Allow them to cool completely. Once cool, wrap them in plastic wrap and chill.
