  • ¼ cup canola oil
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • ¼ cup packed light brown sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ¼ cup sour cream
  • 1 ½ cups grated fresh zucchini (about 2 medium zucchini)

  2. Whisk the flour, cinnamon, salt and baking soda in a medium bowl.
  3. Beat the oil, granulated sugar, brown sugar and eggs in a large bowl until combined, then mix in the vanilla and sour cream.
  4. Squeeze the grated zucchini with hands, paper towels or cheesecloth to remove excess liquid and stir into the batter.
