Ingredients

For the cake:

1 ½ cup granulated sugar
¾ cup vegetable oil
3 large eggs
1 ½ cup all-purpose flour
¾ teaspoon baking soda
¾ teaspoon baking powder
1 ½ teaspoon cinnamon
½ teaspoon kosher salt
1 ½ cup shredded zucchini

For the glaze:

3 cups powdered sugar
2 teaspoon cinnamon
¼ cup milk

Instructions

Preheat oven to 325 degree F. Spray a 12-cup bundt pan with baking spray. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, beat sugar, oil and eggs until blended. Add in flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon and salt. Beat for 2-3 minutes.
Fold in shredded zucchini. Pour into prepared bundt pan.
Bake for 55-60 minutes. Remove and cool in pan 5 minutes. Invert onto a cake plate and cool completely before adding glaze.
For the glaze, whisk together the sugar, cinnamon and milk until smooth. Drizzle over cake, allowing the excess to be added to the center hole (this can be used to drizzle over individual slices, or slurped up with a finger, haha).
Slice and enjoy!

Notes

Have extra glaze? Reserve it for drizzling over individual slices before serving.

How to shred zucchini. Run the size of a zucchini up and down a box grater, over a bowl. Continue until the entire zucchini is shredded. You can also use a food processor fitted with a shredding attachment. Just be careful not to puree.

Storing shredded zucchini. You can shred the zucchini ahead of time and freeze it for several months. Before adding to baked goods, let thaw in the fridge and squeeze out any excess water with paper towels.
