BLUE RIBBON ZUCCHINI NUT BREAD



Blue Ribbon Zucchini Nut Bread image

This is the best Zucchini Nut Bread I have ever had and the only one I will make. It's from "Country Fair Cookbook" All recipes in this book are Blue Ribbon winners from fairs around America prior to it's publication in 1975. Wrap and refrigerate overnight to allow the flavor to mellow. I have also made this as muffins. Just lower the temperature. Now that I live in Australia I make this using the Aussie measuring cups and spoons and it turns out fine. I've also made it with half carrot and half zucchini. And other times I've used half wholewheat flour and half plain, just for a change and it works well too. My husband loves it and says it's more like a cake then a bread since it's so moist.

In mixer bowl, blend sugar, butter or oil, eggs, orange juice and vanilla. In medium bowl, stir together flour, salt, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon and cloves. Fold dry ingredients into wet batter along with shredded carrots, zucchini, raisins, apples and walnuts. Spoon into prepared pans(s). Bake until done, about 1 hour, or until loaves spring back when gently touched with fingertips. Cool to room temperature before icing. *Cream Cheese Drip Frosting:* Place cream cheese, butter and most of confectioner's sugar in food processor or mixer bowl. Blend, adding more of confectioners' sugar and drizzling in a bit of orange juice to make soft, fluffy topping. Add more confectioners' sugar if required (or orange juice to loose, if necessary). Frost top of loaf or cake (if frost is soft enough, it will drip down sides), and garnish with shredded carrots and dusting of cinnamon before serving.
