How to Make Cranberry Zucchini Wedges

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease two 9-inch pie pans.

  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 large eggs, ½ cup vegetable oil, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and 1 cup crushed pineapple (drained).
  4. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  5. Gently fold in 2 cups grated zucchini, 1 cup fresh or frozen cranberries, and ½ cup chopped nuts (walnuts, pecans, or your favorite).
  6. Divide the batter evenly between the prepared pie pans.
  7. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
