Categories     Fruits and Vegetables     Vegetables     Squash

Time 1h35m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 18

2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
½ teaspoon ground allspice
½ cup butter
½ cup vegetable shortening
1 cup white sugar
1 cup brown sugar, not packed
3 eggs
1 tablespoon water, or more if needed
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups shredded zucchini
½ cup chopped walnuts
¼ cup butter
½ cup brown sugar
½ cup chopped walnuts

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 10-inch fluted tube pan (such as a Bundt®).
  • Sift flour, salt, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and allspice together in a bowl. Cream butter and vegetable shortening together in a separate large bowl until thoroughly combined; beat in white sugar and 1 cup brown sugar until the mixture is smooth and creamy. Beat eggs, water, and vanilla extract into the shortening mixture, followed by the flour mixture. Gently stir in zucchini and 1/2 cup walnuts. If batter seems dry, mix in 1 more tablespoon water.
  • Melt 1/4 cup butter in a saucepan over medium-low heat and stir in 1/2 cup brown sugar until it has dissolved and small bubbles appear in the mixture. Stir 1/2 cup walnuts into the brown sugar mixture.

Categories     dessert

Time 1h35m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 21

Butter, for greasing the pan
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/3 cups granulated sugar
1 cup finely chopped pecans
1/2 cup sweetened flaked coconut
2 teaspoons baking soda
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
3 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 tablespoons milk, plus more if needed
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 large eggs
2 cups grated unpeeled zucchini (about 4 zucchini; use the small holes on a grater and pat dry with a paper towel)
One 8-ounce package cream cheese, softened
4 tablespoons salted butter, softened
2 cups powdered sugar, more or less as needed
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 splashes milk, if needed
1/2 cup chopped pecans, for garnish

Steps:

  • For the cake: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 9-by-13-inch pan.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, pecans, coconut, baking soda, cinnamon, salt, nutmeg and ginger. In another bowl, whisk together the oil, milk, vanilla and eggs and stir in the grated zucchini. Fold this into the dry ingredients. The batter will be stiff and dry but keep folding it and it will all come together. If it still seems too dry, just add a little more milk.
  • Spread the batter into the prepared pan. Bake until a wooden pick inserted in the center comes out with moist crumbs and the cake is pulling away from the sides of the pan, about 20 minutes. Cool completely on a wire rack.
  • For the frosting: Beat the cream cheese and butter in a large bowl with a mixer at medium speed until smooth. Beat in the powdered sugar and vanilla just until smooth. Add the milk if necessary.
  • Spread the frosting over the top of the cooled cake. Garnish with chopped pecans.
