I received this recipe in an email a long time ago. I'm not sure who the person was who sent it -I never did figure out whether this was someone I knew from somewhere, or just an odd version of spam. The message says "Returned from vacation and finally got a chance to respond back to my emails. While on our trip, came across this wonderful Zucchini recipe and wish to share it with all." I wrote back, and asked if s/he wanted it posted to the old cookbook, but never got a reply. Anyway, here it is:
Blair's Zucchini Loaves
3 large eggs, lightly beaten 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar 3 cups shredded zucchini (1 1/2 pounds) 3/4 cup vegetable oil 2 teaspoons vanilla extract 2 cups all-purpose flour 1 cup whole wheat flour 1/2 cup wheat germ 1/4 cup nonfat dry milk powder 1 teaspoon salt 1 teaspoon baking soda 1 teaspoon baking powder 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves 1 cup sifted powdered sugar 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract 2 tablespoons milk 1/4 cup chopped pecans, toasted
Combine first 5 ingredients in a large mixing bowl, stirring well. Combine all purpose flour and next 9 ingredients, stirring well. Add zucchini mixture, stirring just until blended. Spoon batter evenly into 2 greased and floured 8x 4 x 2 1/2 loafpans. Bake at 350 for 45 to 50 minutes or until a wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool pans on wire rack 10 minutes; remove from pans and cool completely on wire rack.
Combine powdered sugar, 1/2 teaspoon vanilla, and milk, stirring until smooth. Drizzle evenly over loaves; sprinkle with pecans. Yield: 2 loaves. **(These loaves may be frozen up to one month; drizzle with glaze after thawing.)
