Ingredients:
- 1 1/2 cups flour

- 1 tsp salt
- 1/3 cup baking powder
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 eggs
- 4 cups grated zucchini
- 2/3 cup chopped walnuts
Instructions:
-
Mix dry ingredients:
In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, sugar, cinnamon, salt, baking powder, and baking soda. Stir well to ensure even distribution of ingredients. -
Prepare wet ingredients:
In another bowl, whisk together the oil, eggs, and vanilla extract until well combined. -
Combine wet and dry ingredients:
Pour the wet ingredients mixture into the dry ingredients bowl. Mix thoroughly until a smooth batter forms. -
Incorporate zucchini:
Add the grated zucchini to the batter and stir until it is evenly distributed throughout the mixture. -
Fold in walnuts:
Gently fold the chopped walnuts into the batter, ensuring they are evenly dispersed. -
Preheat oven:
Preheat your oven to 350Β°F (175Β°C). Grease a 13×9 inch baking pan to prevent sticking. -
Bake:
Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it out evenly. Place it in the preheated oven and bake for approximately 40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. -
Cool and serve:
Once baked, remove the zucchini cake from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for a few minutes. Then, transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing and serving.
