Blueberry Zucchini Bread


Moving forward on the baking revolution, this weekend I made another delicious fruit bread inspired by the seasonal delight of blueberries.

3 eggs (beaten)
1 cup vegetable oil
3 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 1/4 cups white sugar
2 cups zucchini (shredded)
3 cups flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
1 pint fresh blueberries

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease 2 5x9 in baking pans. In a large bowl, beat together the eggs, vegetable oil, vanilla, and sugar. Fold the zucchini into this mixture.

In a separate bowl, mix together flour, salt, baking soda, baking powder, and cinnamon. Add the dry mixture to the wet mixture and beat until texture is consistent. Gently fold in fresh blueberries. Pour into baking pans.

Bake for about 90 minutes, checking occasionally. Bread is done baking when a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let cool about 20 minutes before turning out from pan. Enjoy!
