Courgette Loaf Cake

Yes, I do like to hide my courgettes in cakes so here is a recipe for another loaf cake. Traditional flavours from the spices and a little bit of dried fruit.

Courgette Loaf Cake

2 eggs
125ml sunflower oil
85g light brown sugar
350g courgettes, grated
1 tsp vanilla extract
300g plain flour
2 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp nutmeg
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp bicarbonate of soda
140g sultanas or raisins

Preheat the oven to 180°C and line a 2lb loaf tin. Whisk together the eggs, oil, sugar and vanilla in a large bowl Put the grated courgette in a tea towel and squeeze hard to extract the moisture then add it to the bowl. Put the dry ingredients on top of the courgette in the bowl and mix together. Spoon the batter into the loaf tin and bake for 1 hour.
