Sour Cream Zucchini Bread

Too many zucchinis coming from your garden? Use them to make this delicious bread! I usually add 1 cup of chocolate chips to the recipe (instead of raisins or nuts) and everyone eats this up! It's moist and yummy!

3 cups all purpose flour
3 eggs
2 cups granulated sugar
1 cup oil
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 cups gated zucchini (pared if desired)
1 cup chopped nuts or raisins
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon soda
¼ teaspoon baking powder
½ cup sour cream

Grease two 9x5x3” loaf pans.
Sift flour into a large bowl.
Beat eggs and add with rest of ingredients to the flour in large bowl.
Mix well, making sure all zucchini and flour is mixed into batter.
Scrape bowl often and keep mixing for several minutes.
Pour into greased pans and bake in preheated 350-degree oven for 1 hour and 20 minutes.
Let cool in pans on wire racks.
Store in plastic wrap or wrap in freezer paper and freeze.
