Lemon Zucchini Bread

I found this on Pinterest


1½ cups sugar
½ cup butter
½ cup coconut oil(you can use regular oil)
3 eggs
1 tablespoon vanilla
¼ cup lemon juice
3 cups raw grated zucchini
1 tablespoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
2½ cups white whole wheat flour (I used white flour but had to add more)
¾ cup chopped nuts (optional)
Lemon Glaze
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 cup powdered sugar, sifted
Blend sugar, butter, and oil. Add eggs, beat well. Stir in vanilla, lemon juice, and zucchini. Add cinnamon, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Stir until well combined. Stir in white whole wheat flour and nuts.
Grease and flour 2 loaf pans. Pour mixture into pans. Bake at 350° for 45-50 minutes.
Mix lemon juice and powdered sugar. Pour and spread over warm bread.

We made this today and it is really yummy! A fun twist on zucchini bread!
