Date Nut Zucchini Spice Bread

---

This is a delightful, moist, and flavourful treat. It doesn't feel or taste oily like most zucchini bread recipes. I created this recipe to use up those giant zucchinis. It is easily doubled and freezes well.

Steps

---

Preheat oven to 350f.

---

Line a colander with several layers of paper towels.

---

Place zucchini on top and cover with several more layers of paper towels.

---

Add weight and set aside at least 15 minutes , pressing occasionally to remove moisture.

---

In a large bowl , combine flour , sugar baking soda , spices , dates , and walnuts.

---

Add zucchini and toss to coat.

---

In a separate container , mix the molasses with the oil and the eggs.

---

Create a well in the dry ingredients and add wet ingredients.

---

Stir with a wooden spoon until uniformly combined.

---

Pour into a loaf pan and bake 50-55 minutes.

---

This prevents the date pieces from sticking together.
