How to Make Marge's Zucchini Bread

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9x5 inch loaf pans.
In a large bowl, beat 2 large eggs until light and frothy.
Add 1 cup granulated sugar, ½ cup vegetable oil, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Beat until light and lemon-colored.
In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg, and ½ teaspoon salt.
Add 2 cups grated zucchini to the wet ingredients. Gently fold in the dry ingredients until just combined. Do not overmix.
Stir in 1 cup chopped walnuts or raisins (optional).
Pour batter evenly into prepared loaf pans.
Bake for 55-60 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
Let cool in pans for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
