Ingredients

• 1 ½ cups shredded zucchini 
• ¾ cup white sugar 
• 1 egg 
• ½ cup vegetable oil 
• 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour 
• ½ teaspoon salt 
• ½ teaspoon baking soda 
• ¼ teaspoon baking powder 
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon 
• 2 teaspoons lemon zest

Directions

• Step 1Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Grease an 8×4 inch loaf pan.
• Step 2In a bowl, beat together the zucchini, sugar, egg, and oil. In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, salt, baking soda, and baking powder; stir in the cinnamon and lemon zest. Stir the flour mixture into the zucchini mixture just until blended. Pour the batter into the prepared pan.
• Step 3Bake 45 minutes in the preheated oven, until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean. Remove from heat, and cool about 10 minutes before turning out onto a wire rack to cool completely.
