Cucumber Bread

So many cucumbers in the veg box....so many.

Makes: 2 small loaves

Ingredients:

• 2 cups peeled, seeded, grated cucumber (~7 small cukes)
• 3 eggs
• 1 cup vegetable oil
• 2 cups sugar
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 3 cups plain/all-purpose/type 405 flour
• 1½ tablespoons ground cinnamon
• ⅛ teaspoon ground nutmeg
• ⅛ teaspoon ground ginger
• ½ teaspoon salt
• ¼ teaspoon baking powder
• 1 teaspoon baking soda

 Drain shredded cucumbers in a colander for at least half an hour.

Grease baking dishes and preheat oven to 325'F/165'C/Gas Mark 3.

Stir together eggs, oil, sugar, vanilla, and cucumber.  In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, salt, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, ginger, and nutmeg.  Add dry ingredients to wet and stir until well-combined.

Pour into baking dishes until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean.  (Start checking around 50 minutes if your oven runs hot, around 60 minutes otherwise.)
