It’s better without the nuts. It doesn’t need them anyway. It’s a dessert this way, people.
Your welcome! : )
Thanks, 90flowerpots! I use coconut oil sometimes too but my sister is allergic to it, so she sometimes feels left out.
Long live the true king!

I wasn’t talking about your recipe Narniaisawsome, just too let you know. : ) Yours sounds good too.
Sorry, I’m crazy about health here. Anyway, This is pretty healthy except I would use wheat flour and coconut oil instead of butter. I do that all the time and it comes out perfect! I would just make sure all the ingredients are organic and not GMO.

This recipe sounds pretty good, but MY recipe is different, here it is:
3 cups flour
2 cups sugar
1 teaspoon kosher salt
half a teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
3 tablespoons cinnamon
1 cup oil
3 eggs
3 teaspoons vanilla
2 cups zucchini
1 cup nuts (optional)
Then you just mix it all together and put it into 2 greased and floured 4 x 8 bread pans and bake @ 300 degrees for 1 hour and 45 minutes.
