Need an idea for what to do with extra summer squash? Try baking a moist and fluffy zucchini bread studded with bits of walnut. It’s a great way to use the bounty from your garden or the Lenexa Farmers Market. (Get adventurous and try using duck eggs from JET Produce and Meats. The larger yolks help baked goods rise higher.)
1 teaspoon salt 1 teaspoon baking soda 1 teaspoon baking powder 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon 3 cups all-purpose flour 3 eggs 1 cup vegetable oil 2 ¼ cups white sugar 3 teaspoon vanilla extract 2 cups grated zucchini 1 cup chopped walnuts (optional)
