Zucchini Bread
Ingredients:
3 c. flour, 1 t. salt, 1 t. baking soda, 1 t. baking powder, 3 t. cinnamon, 3 eggs, 1 c. vegetable oil, 2 1/4 c. sugar, 3 t. vanilla, 2 c. (peeled) grated zucchini (about 2 medium zuchhinis), 1 c. chopped walnuts
Instructions:
1. Grease 6 empty/cleaned vegetable cans (or 1 8x4 inch bread pan)-I use Baker's Joy with flour.
2. Sift flour, salt, soda, powder, and cinnamon in a bowl.
3. Beat eggs, oil, vanilla, and sugar and then add in sifted ingredients and beat well.
4. Fold in zucchini and nuts.
5. If you are using the cans, I filled mine to a little over half full of batter, and the popped up perfectly. I wanted a tiny bit peeking over the edge.
6. Bake 40-60 minutes. (My cans took about 45 minutes total for a tester to come out clean).
I put a piece of syran wrap over the cooled bread, cut a circle of wax paper, and held it on with a rubber band, which I later covered with raffia.
This freezes well, and can be stored in the fridge for a week++. :O)

What a AWESOME! idea! Going to have to share with my mom!
So cool! I'd never thought of cooking a quick bread in a can. This would be a fun way to share the garden bounty with neighbors.
Very cute idea...found you on the links on "Be Different...Act Normal"
I think the only issues with the cans would be the ones that are lined/coated (they are usually white, often on acidic foods). I'm just going to use the all metal ones.
Thanks for sharing!
What a cute idea for a gift! I love it!

I love stuff baked in cans! (really!) Thanks for sending along. I posted at ediblecrafts.craftgossip.com
My Mother made Boston Brown Bread in tin cans. We had it every Christmas until she passed away in 2003 and never became ill from eating it. I love the way you topped them off for a gift.
