Title: Recipe Review - Zucchini Loaf - A Taste of Vegetarian
Post by: Denzelmum on September 18, 2010, 06:12:21 am

Instead of 300g zucchini, made it 180g of zucchini and 120g of carrot.  Need to increase to speed 6-7 to grate.

Also reduce the sugar to 300g, sweet enough for my taste.

Using Rice Bran Oil and work really well.

Before serving, I toasted it in sandwich press, yumm...

Thanks for the tips.  Like the idea of 50:50 carrot:zucchini - may help firm it up?

Good thinking, Thermomix.  I love the color combo too!

I loved this loaf, just as per recipe.  It wasn't the cheapest, containing walnuts, grapeseed oil and three eggs, but it was a delicious, light loaf-cake that made plenty. 

I was wondering about such a large amount of raw sugar, but the taste was not unduly sweet.  For some reason the walnuts and zucchini balanced it out.

I found the mixture was not close to being finished in the ten seconds indicated for adding the last lot of ingredients, but overall, the recipe was a good guide.

The cracking of the walnuts was the most time-consuming aspect of the preparation of this recipe, but that effort just made the cooked loaves all the more appreciated.

I've seen this recipe several times. I think I will give it a try when we get home.

Do try it, cookie.  Today we had it with dates added.  Thank you to my friend, Ruth, for excellent Thermomixing:
