Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Coat two 9x5-inch loaf pans with cooking spray.

Step 2

Combine white sugar, zucchini, oil, eggs, and vanilla in a large bowl; stir in raisins.

Step 3

Combine flour, baking soda, salt, 1 teaspoon cinnamon, and baking powder in a separate large bowl; whisk into zucchini mixture until almost no lumps remain. Divide batter between the prepared loaf pans.

Step 4

Whisk brown sugar and ¼ teaspoon cinnamon together in a small bowl until well combined; sprinkle over batter in the loaf pans.

Step 5

Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into centers comes out clean, about 1 hour. Cool in the pans for 10 minutes, then remove from the pans and finish cooling on a wire rack.
