Courgette loaf



I have an abundance of courgettes, yet again =D so I have many recipes that I have come across over the years to keep them out of my freezer!! This is a family favourite; courgette loaf.

Ingredients
  • large eggs
  • 125ml vegetable oil
  • 85g soft brown sugar
  • 350g courgettes, coarsely grated
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 300g plain flour
  • 2 tsp cinnamon
  • ¼ tsp nutmeg
  • ½ tsp bicarbonate of soda
  • ½ tsp baking powder
  • 85g walnuts, roughly chopped
  • 140g sultanas
  • What to do
  • Heat oven to 180C and Butter and line a loaf tin with baking parchment. 
  • In a large bowl, whisk the eggs, oil and sugar, then add the courgettes and vanilla
  • In another bowl, combine the remaining ingredients with a pinch of salt.
  • Stir the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, then pour into the tin. Bake for 1 hr, or until a skewer inserted into the centre comes out clean. Leave to cool, then serve, or freeze for up to 1 month.
