Ingredients

• 2 cups All-purpose flour
• 1.5 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
• 1 teaspoon Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 2 Eggs
• 0.75 cup Granulated sugar
• 0.75 cup Brown sugar
• 0.5 cup Vegetable oil
• 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 1.5 cups Zucchini, shredded
• 0.75 cup Carrot, shredded
• 0.5 cup Raisins
• 0.5 cup Chopped walnuts

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan and line it with parchment paper for easy removal.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, cinnamon, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.

Step 3

In a separate bowl, beat the eggs, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until well combined. Add the vegetable oil and vanilla extract, and mix until smooth.

Step 4

Fold the shredded zucchini and carrots into the wet mixture, ensuring they are evenly distributed.

Step 5

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, gently stirring until just combined. Do not overmix.

Step 6

Fold in the raisins and chopped walnuts to distribute them evenly in the batter.

Step 7

Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 55-65 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Step 9

Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then, transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.

Step 10

Serve warm or at room temperature. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 4 days or freeze for longer storage.
