Zucchini Bread with Pineapple and Golden Raisins


    Hi there.....It's been awhile. I've been enjoying family time so much that it's been kinda
    hard for me to log on to the computer. Such a good thing. I share with you today the
    most moist and delish zucchini bread. Filled with pineapple and golden raisins. Fall is
    just around the corner and that means lots of baking in my house. I'm day dreaming
    of those wonderful smells. Have a cup of tea or coffee and enjoy a nice slice of bread.

                                         Zucchini Bread with Pineapple and Golden Raisins

                     2 cups of shredded zucchini
                     1 ( 8oz ) can crushed pineapple
                     1 cup golden raisins
                     3 eggs
                     1 cup vegetable oil
                     2 teaspoons vanilla extract
                     3 cups flour
                     2 cups sugar
                     2 teaspoons baking soda
                     1/2 teaspoon baking powder
                     2 teaspoons cinnamon
                     1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
                     1 teaspoon salt
                   
             1) In a large bowl, combine the eggs, zucchini, oil, pineapple, raisins and vanilla.
             Combine dry ingredients. Stir until just moist.
             2)Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease 2 loaf pans and pour into pans. Bake for 45
             to 50 minutes or until done.

  2. So glad you're enjoying family time..so important. I sure am missing my boys more now that they are back in school

    I've never made zucchini bread! I like the idea of pineapples too. I think it would add a nice sweet flavor.
