  • Preheat oven to 180 degrees celsius (350 Fareneit)
  • Grease and line 2 x 14cm x 22cm (5.5″ x 8.5″) bread loaf tins.
  •  Beat eggs until they become pale in colour and fluffy in consistency.
  • Add the sugar, oil and vanilla. Beat until thick.
  • Stir in the grated zucchini.
  •  Sift the flour, baking powder, bicarbonate soda, salt and cinnamon into the wet ingredients. Fold the ingredients together.
  •  Fold in walnuts, if using.
