Zesty Zucchini Bread

• 2 cups sugar
• 1 cup oil
• 4 eggs
• 2 teaspoons lemon zest
• 1 teaspoon orange zest
• 3 cups flour
• 4 teaspoons baking powder
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg (or more to taste)
• 1/4 teaspoon ginger (or more to taste)
• 2 cups zucchini, grated and drained on paper towels (do not peel)
• 1 cup walnuts, chopped (delicious) (optional)

1. Preheat oven to 350. Grease (I use butter) two 9 x 5 bread pans.
2. Beat eggs well. Add sugar, oil, zests, and zucchini. Mix well.
3. Combine all dry ingredients (except nuts) in a separate bowl and mix.
4. Add to zucchini mixture and stir just until combined. It may still be a little lumpy.
5. Fold in walnuts, if using, and pour into prepared pans.
6. Bake for 65 minutes or until done, using a toothpick to test center. If the toothpick comes out clean, it is done.
7. Cool for 10 to 15 minutes in pans on a rack. Then remove loaves from pans, and allow to cool completely on rack.
