Zucchini Cake Recipe

Zucchini And Walnut(peacan) Cake

Cook Time: 55 minutes

Ingredients:

• 1 cup vegetable oil
• 2 cup sugar
• 3 eggs
• 2 tsp. vanilla (I alwaysuse pure vanilla extract)
• 2 cups flour
• 1 tsp. baking soda
• 1/2 tsp. baking powder
• 2 tsp. cinnamon
• 2 cups grated zucchini (leave skins on)
• 1 cup walnuts

Preparation:

Mix oil and sugar. Add eggs, one at a time beating well after each addition; blend in vanilla. In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and baking soda. Add sifted dry ingredients to first mixture; alternating with grated zucchini. Fold in chopped nuts. (Batter will be a bit thin.)
Pour into greased and floured 13x9x2-inch pan. Bake at 350° for 55 minutes.

 You can use less oil, I used 3/4 cup of good olive oil.  I also used mixed spice instead of cinnamon. Just for a change.

This is a lovely moist cake. I slice it and freeze the slices sometimes iced other times plain.  

Icing is cream cheese. 

I used 1/2pack cream cheese

Juice of 1/2-1 lemon depending on your like of lemon and how much juice is in the lemon.

You can also add butter.  not sure how much..sorry makes it more soft and flavoursome

One cup of icing sugar, but sometimes I use more..it just depends on how much icing I need and whether I want it thick or more runny.  I beat it all together with my rotary hand mixer.  Till it is creamy and fluffy.
