- 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- ½ cup vegetable oil
- 3 large eggs

Notes
- For optimal freshness, store your zucchini bread in an airtight container at room temperature for up to three days or refrigerate for up to a week.
- To enjoy your zucchini bread warm, simply reheat individual slices in the microwave for 10-15 seconds or toast them lightly in a skillet for added crispness.
- Serve your zucchini bread with a dollop of cream cheese or butter for a delightful treat, and consider pairing it with a cup of tea or coffee for a cozy afternoon snack.
- For extra moisture and flavor, make sure to squeeze out excess water from the grated zucchini before mixing it into the batter; this helps achieve a perfect texture without compromising taste.
