Zucchini Bread Or Cupcakes - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    3 eggs
    1 cup olive oil or 1 cup vegetable oil
    1 1/2 cups sugar
    2 cups zucchini, grated
    2 teaspoons vanilla extract
    3 cups all-purpose flour
    3 teaspoons cinnamon
    1/8 teaspoon nutmeg
    1 teaspoon baking soda
    1/2 teaspoon baking powder
    1 teaspoon salt
    1/2 cup chopped walnuts (optional) or 1/2 cup pecans (optional)
Preparation
    Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
    Grease and flour two 8x4 inch loaf pans. (Grease liberally.) Alternately, line 24 muffin cups with paper liners.
    In a large bowl, beat the eggs with a whisk. Mix in oil and sugar, then zucchini and vanilla.
    Combine flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, baking soda, baking powder and salt, as well as nuts, chocolate chips and/or dried fruit, if using.
    Stir this into the egg mixture. Divide the batter into prepared pans.
    Bake loaves for 60 minutes, plus or minus ten, or until a tester inserted into the center comes out clean. Muffins will bake far more quickly, approximately 20 to 25 minutes.
