Ingredients
  • 3 Eggs
  • 1 cup Oil
  • 2 cup Sugar
  • 2 teaspoon Vanilla
  • 2 cup Zucchini; shredded
  • 8 1/2 ounce Crushed pineapple; drained
  • 1 cup Nuts; chopped
  • 1/2 cup Raisins
  • 3 cup Flour
  • 1 1/2 teaspoon Cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • 3/4 teaspoon Nutmeg
  • 2 teaspoon Baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon Baking powder
Directions
  1. 1
    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease two 9x5-inch loaf pans with oil or non-stick spray.
  2. 2
    In a large mixing bowl, beat the eggs, oil, sugar, and vanilla extract together until the mixture is thick and well combined.
  3. 3
    In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cinnamon, salt, nutmeg, baking soda, and baking powder.
  4. 4
    Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture using a spatula or wooden spoon. Mix only until just combined; do not overmix.
  5. 5
    Stir in the shredded zucchini, drained crushed pineapple, chopped nuts, and raisins until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
  6. 6
    Divide the batter evenly between the two prepared loaf pans, smoothing the tops with a spatula.
  7. 7
    Bake in the preheated oven for approximately 1 hour, or until a wooden toothpick inserted into the center of the loaves comes out clean.
  8. 8
    Remove the loaves from the oven and let them cool in the pans for 10 minutes. Then, turn them out onto a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
