Bread (Dessert) - Cranberry Lemon Zucchini Quik Bread

A little about categorizing bread. Our system is not scientific by a long shot. We've placed them into table, flat, dessert, and fried. Table bread may include loaves of sandwich-type bread or something designed to serve as a loaf or dinner bun at the table. Flat is generally un-yeasted bread that is flat (duh!). Fried can be pan-fried or deep-fried. Dessert is for delectables such as banana bread. The words dressing and stuffing are interchangeable, depending where you live. Many will contain bread, others may not. This is dizzying.

2 cups all-purpose flour
3 eggs
1 cup oil
1 cup zucchini, shredded
1 cup dried cranberries, divided
3/4 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup milk
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
Zest of one lemon

Preheat oven to 350°F and grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan. Set aside. In a medium mixing bowl, combine oil, eggs, and sugar and mix until well combined. Add milk, lemon juice and lemon zest, stirring until thoroughly incorporated. Mix in flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined. Fold in shredded zucchini and 3/4 cup of the cranberries. Pour batter into prepared loaf pan and top with remaining cranberries. Bake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 50-60 minutes. Cool in pan 5-10 minutes before inverting onto a wire rack to cool completely. Slice, serve, and enjoy!
