Melissa’s Cozy Teacup

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

However, lest I should yak on plain ol’ zucchini that isn’t grilled and smothered in garlic butter, here is a chocolate zucchini bread recipe. A nice cup of black tea or even chocolate tea if you are in desperate need of chocolate therapy, some days are like that, would go well with this recipe.

CHOCOLATE ZUCCHINI BREAD

3 eggs

2 1/2 C all-purpose flour (I like the unbleached Hungarian flour)

1 C oil I always use coconut oil you may use olive oil try not to use vegetable oil

2 C sugar (I will reduce to 1 C) I’m sweet enough already-wink

1 tsp salt

1 TBS vanilla extract

1 tsp baking soda

2 C peeled, shredder zucchini-squeeze out as much moisture as you can

1 tsp ground cinnamon

1/4 tsp baking powder

In medium bowl, combine eggs, oil, sugar and vanilla, mix-add in zucchini, mix. In large bowl, mix together dry ingredients.

Gradually add wet ingredients to dry. Pour into two greased and floured bread loaf pans and bake

at 350 in preheated oven for 1 hour or until a knife stuck in the middle of the bread comes out clean.

Enjoy with your favorite tea. Serves many happy bunnies!
