Zucchini Bread (5 WW pts.)

What to do with a TON of garden fresh zucchini? Make zucchini bread of course! This recipe was taken from Allrecipes Tried and True Favorites cookbook. It takes 15 minutes to prepare, 1 hour and 10 minutes to cook, and makes 24 servings.

3 eggs
1 cup vegetable oil (I used canola)
2 cups white sugar
2 cups grated zucchini
2 tsps. vanilla extract
3 cups all purpose flour
3 tsps. ground cinnamon
1 tsp. baking soda
1/4 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. salt
1/2 cup chopped walnuts

Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.
Grease and flour two 8x4 inch loaf pans

In a large bowl, beat eggs until light and frothy. Mix in oil and sugar. Stir in zucchini and vanilla. Combine flour, cinnamon, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and nuts; stir into the egg mixture. Divide batter into prepared pans. Bake for 60 to 70 minutes, or until done.
