How to Make Italian Dessert
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Generously grease and flour a 10 x 4 ¼ inch tube pan.
- In a large bowl, beat eggs until light and fluffy. Gradually add sugar and beat until well combined.
- Stir in vegetable oil until thoroughly incorporated.
- Add the grated zucchini and mix until evenly distributed.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, folding gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Stir in the chopped nuts and raisins.
- Pour the batter into the prepared tube pan.
- Bake for 60-70 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the cake cool in the pan for 20 minutes before inverting it onto a serving platter.
- Serve warm or at room temperature, topped with whipped cream if desired.
