“Nutmeg and cinnamon add spice to these flavorful loaves from Alice Manzo of South Easton, Massachusetts. The flecks of green zucchini and red cranberries give each slice a festive look that’s just right for the holidays.”

INGREDIENTS

* 3 cups all-purpose flour
* 2 cups sugar
* 2 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
* 1 1/4 teaspoons salt
* 1 teaspoon baking soda
* 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
* 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
* 3 eggs
* 1 1/2 cups shredded zucchini
* 1 cup vegetable oil
* 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
* 1 cup chopped fresh or frozen cranberries
* 1/2 cup chopped walnuts

DIRECTIONS

1. In a large bowl, combine the first seven ingredient. In another bowl, beat eggs; add zucchini, oil and vanilla. Stir into dry ingredients just until blended. Fold in the cranberries and walnuts. Pour into two greased and floured 9-in. x 5-in. x 3-in. loaf pans. Bake at 350 degrees F for 50-60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool for 10 minutes before removing from pans to wire racks.
