Zucchini Bread

3 eggs
2 cups sugar
1 cup vegetable oil
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon ground cloves
2 cups shredded unpeeled zucchini
1 cup chopped nuts
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly grease and flour two 9x5-inch loaf pans. In a large bowl, cream eggs, sugar, and vegetable oil until light and fluffy. Mix in flour, salt, cinnamon, baking powder, and baking soda. Add cloves, zucchini, nuts, and vanilla extract; stir until well blended.

Pour batter into prepared loaf pans and bake 55 to 60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Remove from oven and cool on wire racks 10 minutes; remove from pans. Cool completely before slicing.

Yields 2 loaves.
