Ingredients
- 3 Large Eggs
- 2 Tablespoons Avocado Oil (or any nonfragrant oil)
- ½ teaspoon Vanilla Extract
- 2 cups Shredded Zucchini (about 2 medium sized zucchini)
- ½ cup Sugar
- 1 teaspoon Ground Cinnamon
- ½ teaspoon Salt
- 1½ teaspoons Double Acting Baking Powder
- 2 cups Blue Diamond Almond Flour
Instructions
- Move an oven rack to the very center settings, then preheat the oven to 350°F.
- Shred the zucchini if needed. In a large bowl, combine the eggs, oil and vanilla and mix very well. Add the zucchini and mix.
- In a separate bowl, combine the sugar, cinnamon, salt, baking powder and flour and mix together.
- Pour the dry mixture into the wet mixture and mix until all dry ingredients are wet.*Small lumps of flour are OK.*The batter will be thicker than normal.
- Spray the bottom of the loaf pan with non-stick spray, or use oil with a paper towel to spread.Pour the batter into the loaf pan and spread across evenly.
- Place the pan in the preheated oven in the middle, on the center rack. Bake for 45 minutes, or until the top center of the bread is no longer batter.
- Remove from the oven. Cool for 10 minutes, then give it a quick side-to-side shake to release the sides. Allow to cool longer if too hot to touch. Remove loaf from the pan and cut into 12 even slices.
Notes
Grease only the bottom of the pan so the loaf will rise properly.
