Ingredients
- 800g zucchini
- 500g caster sugar

Instructions
Preparation time: 10 minutes
Cooking time: 50 minutes
Makes: 2 medium loaves
1 Preheat oven to 170°C. Grate the zucchini coarsely, then toss with 150g caster sugar and set aside for 10 minutes. Squeeze well to remove excess moisture.
2 Whisk the eggs and remaining sugar in a bowl for 5 minutes, until very light, then fold in the oil, vanilla almond essence and kefir. Mix in the tahini and flour until smooth, then fold in the zucchini.
3 Spoon into two lined medium loaf pans and bake for 45-50 minutes, until a skewer can be inserted and removed cleanly. Cool on a wire rack.
