Zucchini cheddar bread

1 Servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
¾ cup Blanched almonds
2 cups All-purpose flour
1 tablespoon Baking powder
½ teaspoon Salt
1 cup Grated sharp Cheddar cheese
1 large Onion; chopped
¼ cup Butter
¾ cup Milk
⅓ cup Oil
3 Eggs
½ teaspoon Dried basil
½ teaspoon Dried thyme
1½ cup Grated zucchini; well drained

Directions

Preheat the oven to 300 F. Butter and flour a 9" round pan. Chop the almonds and spread on a cookie sheet to toast in the oven. Turn and stir them occasionally, watching like a hawk until they are golden brown. Set aside and raise the oven heat to 400 F.

Combine the dry ingredients and toss gently with the cheese. Saute the onion in the butter until soft, then drop it into a blender or food processor along with the milk, oil, eggs and seasonings and blend well. Add the zucchini and make sure everything is well integrated before you stir in the toasted almonds, by hand. Pour the whole mixture into the dry ingredients. Stir lightly, then spread the batter into the pan and bake for 40 minutes. Cool on a wire rack before removing from the pan. Cut in wedges to serve.
