Zucchini Bread - makes 2 loaves

Just yummy!  Enough said.
Makes two loaves.
Ingredients
3 eggs
1 cup sugar
2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
2 cups grated/shredded zucchini
1 cup butter, melted
2 tsp vanilla
​3 cups all-purpose flour
1 tsp salt
1 & 1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/2 cup chopped nuts (optional)
​1/2 cup raisins
Steps
  1. Melt butter over low heat or in microwave and let cool slightly.
  2. Grease and flour two loaf pans.  Set aside.
  3. In a bowl, stir together flour, salt, spices, baking powder, and baking soda.
  4. After I shred the zucchini, I like to squeeze some of the excess juice out of it.  You can use your hands or wrap it up in an old, clean dishtowel and squeeze over the sink.
  5. In a separate bowl, mix eggs and sugar.  Add shredded zucchini, melted butter, and vanilla.  Stir.
  6. Add flour mixture to the zucchini mixture and stir well.  Add chopped nuts and raisins.
  7. Spoon dough between two loaf pans.  Bake at 325° F for about an hour.  Test with a knife to see if it is done - push the knife into the center.  If it comes up clean, the bread is done.  If not, put it back in the oven for another 5 to 10 minutes.
  8. Let cool about 15 minutes in the pans, then remove bread.  Let cool on racks for about 20 minutes or so before eating.
