Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 cups grated zucchini
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9×13 inch cake pan, ensuring an easy release after baking.

  5. Pour the batter into your prepared cake pan and spread it out evenly.
  6. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
  7. Cool the cake in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
