Zucchini Spice Bread

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup canola oil, plus more for the pan
• 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, spooned and leveled
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
• 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
• 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
• pinch ground cloves
• 1/2 cup light brown sugar
• 1/4 cup granulated sugar
• 2 large eggs
• 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
• 1 medium zucchini (about 8 ounces), coarsely grated (about 1 1/2 cups)

Directions

1. Heat oven to 350° F. Oil an 8½-by-4½-inch loaf pan. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, ginger, salt, baking soda, nutmeg, and cloves.
2. In a large bowl, mix together the oil, light brown and granulated sugars, eggs, and vanilla; mix in the zucchini. Add the flour mixture and mix until just combined (do not overmix).
3. Spread the batter in the prepared pan and bake until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 50 to 60 minutes. Cool in the pan for 30 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
