Zubereitungszeit ca. 1 Stunden 25 MinutenVorbereitung ca. 20 MinutenKochzeit ca. 1 Stunden 5 Minuten
Zutaten:
- 3 eggs
- 1 cup vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 2 cups sugar
- 3 cups flour
- ¼ teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 2 teaspoons cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon ground ginger
- ¼ teaspoon ground cloves
- 2 cups grated zucchini
- ½ cup pecans
Arbeitsschritte:
- Preheat oven to 325 F. Spray a 9x5-inch pan with cooking spray.
- Separate the egg whites from the egg yolks. Place the egg whites in the bowl of a stand mixer. Beat the egg whites until soft peaks form. Transfer the egg whites to another bowl.
- Place the egg yolks, vegetable oil, vanilla, and sugar in the bowl of the stand mixer. Beat on low until combined.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, ginger, and cloves.
- Use a spatula to fold the flour mixture into the oil mixture. Mix just until combined — the mixture will be crumbly. Add the grated zucchini and pecans, and mix just until combined. The mixture will still be crumbly.
- Use a spatula to gently fold in the egg whites until no white streaks remain. At this point, a smooth batter will form.
- Transfer the mixture to the prepared pan, and bake for 65-80 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let cool for 10 minutes before removing from the pan. Slice and enjoy.
