Description

I found a recipe for zucchini bread in my grandma’s collection. I’ve made a few changes to it to make it my own. Here’s what I came up with.

Ingredients

  • 3 whole Eggs, Beaten
  • 1 cup Cooking Oil
  • 2 cups Sugar
  • 2 cups Zucchini, Grated
  • 2 teaspoons Vanilla
  • 3 cups All-purpose Flour
  • 1 teaspoon Baking Soda
  • ½ teaspoons Baking Powder
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • 1 teaspoon Cinnamon
  • 1 stick Real Butter
  • ½ cups Brown Sugar
  • 1 cup Pecans, Chopped
  • ½ teaspoons Cinnamon
  • 1 pinch Salt

Preparation

Preheat oven to 325 F. Prepare three 12-count muffin tins by greasing them or lining with paper liners (recipe actually makes about 28 so you won’t need to grease all of the tins).

In a large bowl, mix together the eggs, oil, sugar, zucchini, and vanilla. Set aside.

In a separate bowl mix together the dry ingredients: flour, soda, baking powder, salt and cinnamon. Combine the wet and dry ingredients together. Divide batter into prepared pans filling each liner about ¾ full. Bake on 325 F for about 20 minutes. Allow to cool for about 10 minutes.

Meanwhile, in a saucepan over medium low heat, mix together butter, brown sugar, pecans, cinnamon and salt. Allow butter to fully melt, stirring constantly. After melted, continue to heat for about 2 minutes, taking care not to over heat. Then remove pan from heat.

Immediately pour pecan mixture over each individual muffin and allow to cool for about 5 minutes before eating. Enjoy! They’re amazing!
