Zucchini Bread with Raisins Recipe

I make zucchini bread different nearly every time, just to mix things up. Chocolate chips, raisins, cranberries, other fruit, white flour, wheat flour, cinnamon, and other spices can be changed. For my first loaf of the year, this is what i used:

Ingredients

2 eggs, beaten
1 1/3 cup sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla
3 cups grated fresh zucchini
2/3 cup melted unsalted butter
2 teaspoons baking soda
1 dash salt
3+ cups whole wheat flour
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
2 teaspoons cinnamon
1 cup dried raisins

Preheat the oven to 350°F.

In a large bowl, mix together the sugar, eggs, and vanilla. Add zucchini and melted butter. While mixing, sprinkle baking soda and salt over the mixture.

Stir in the whole wheat flour, 1 cup at a time. Add more if looks too thin.

Mix in the cinnamon, nutmeg and raisins.

Pour mixture in one lightly greased 5 by 9 inch loaf pan. Start checking for doneness at 45-50 minutes. Bread is done when a wooden toothpick inserted in to the center comes out clean.

Cool in pan for 10 minutes then transfer to wire rack.
