How to Make Mom's Cinnamon Cake With Zucchini
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 13x9 inch baking pan.
- In a large bowl, combine 2 cups grated zucchini, 1 ½ cups granulated sugar, ½ cup vegetable oil, and 3 large eggs. Mix well.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon, 1 teaspoon ground cloves, 1 teaspoon baking soda, ½ teaspoon baking powder, and ½ teaspoon salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Stir in ½ cup chopped nuts (optional) and ½ cup dried fruit (raisins, cranberries, etc., optional).
- Pour batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
- Bake for 60-75 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean. (For a bundt pan, bake time may vary; check for doneness at 50 minutes).
- Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Dust with powdered sugar, drizzle with icing, or top with whipped cream before serving.
