Glazed Fruit Zucchini Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan.
• Mix flour, baking powder, and salt together in a medium bowl and set aside.
• Beat eggs in a large bowl. Add sugar and oil until well blended. Add buttermilk, lemon juice, and lemon zest and blend together. Fold in zucchini until it is mixed well. Add flour mixture and blend together until well combined. Pour batter into the prepared pan.
• Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center of the loaf comes out clean, 40 to 45 minutes.
• While loaf is still warm, combine powdered sugar, lemon juice, and milk in a bowl for glaze and spoon over bread. Let glaze set up before cutting and serving.

Steps:

• For the quick bread: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly brush one 9-by-5-by-3-inch loaf pan or three 6-by-3-by-2-inch mini loaf pans with melted butter and set aside.
• Combine the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, salt, baking soda, cinnamon and nutmeg in a medium bowl. Add the dried cherries and almonds and toss together. Set aside.
• Whisk together the melted butter, yogurt, vanilla extract, eggs and grated zest if using in a small bowl. Stir in the shredded zucchini. Fold this mixture into the flour mixture until just incorporated.
• Transfer the batter to the prepared loaf pan(s). Tap the bottom on a hard surface a few times and smooth the top. Bake until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 55 to 60 minutes for the regular loaf and 35 to 40 minutes for the minis. Transfer to a wire rack to cool for 30 minutes, then turn the bread out and let cool completely on the rack.
• For the lime glaze: Whisk together the confectioners' sugar, milk and lime zest and juice in a small bowl.
• Pour the glaze over the bread and allow to set at room temperature, 15 to 20 minutes. Store in an airtight container for up to 1 week.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a 12-cup muffin pan with paper liners. Using a vegetable peeler, remove the zest from the lemon in wide strips, being careful not to remove the white pith. Combine the lemon zest and sugar in a food processor and process until the zest is finely chopped, scraping the bowl halfway through, about 1 minute. Stir in the poppy seeds. Scoop out 3 tablespoons of the lemon-poppy seed sugar and set aside.
• Whisk the flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt in a large bowl. Whisk the remaining lemon-poppy seed sugar, the vegetable oil, buttermilk, vanilla and eggs in a medium bowl; stir into the flour mixture until just combined. Stir in the zucchini.
• Divide the batter among the muffin cups, filling them three-quarters of the way. Tap the bottom of the pan lightly on the counter to smooth out the batter. Sprinkle the tops of the muffins with the reserved lemon-poppy seed sugar. Bake until the muffins are golden brown around the edges and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 23 to 25 minutes. Let the muffins cool 5 minutes in the pan, then remove to a rack to cool completely.

Steps:

• For the quick bread: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly brush one 9-by-5-by-3-inch loaf pan or three 6-by-3-by-2-inch mini loaf pans with melted butter and set aside.
• Combine the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, salt, baking soda, cinnamon and nutmeg in a medium bowl. Add the raisins and pistachios and toss together. Set aside.

• Transfer the batter to the prepared loaf pan(s). Tap the bottom on a hard surface a few times and smooth the top. Bake until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 55 to 60 minutes for the regular loaf and 35 to 40 minutes for the minis. Transfer to a wire rack to cool for 30 minutes, then turn the bread out and let cool completely on the rack.
• For the orange glaze: Whisk together the confectioners' sugar, milk and orange zest and juice in a small bowl.
• Pour the glaze over the bread and allow to set at room temperature, 15 to 20 minutes. Store in an airtight container for up to 1 week.
• Cook's Note: When measuring flour, we spoon it into a dry measuring cup and level off the excess. (Scooping directly from the bag compacts the flour, resulting in dry baked goods.)
• Try not to use dark coated baking pans; the quick bread could get too dark.
• Most quick breads taste better if left to sit overnight.

Steps:

• Place a large saute pan over medium-high heat. Add the olive oil and carrots to the pan and season with 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper. Cook, tossing occasionally, until the carrots are crisp-tender, about 8 minutes.
• Add the zucchini to the pan and cook until slightly softened, about 2 minutes. Stir in the butter, orange juice and sugar and cook for 1 minute more. Toss to coat all of the vegetables in the glaze. Remove from the heat and stir in the chives. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Insert a toothpick or wooden skewer into the base of each small fruit. Cut off one end of the grapefruit to make a flat base, then pierce 50 small holes in the grapefruit to hold the toothpicks for display. Line a baking sheet with a piece of waxed paper.
• In a 2-quart heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium-high heat, bring the sugar, the water, and the cream of tartar to a boil. Brush down the sides of the pan two times with a pastry brush dipped in warm water to prevent the sugar from crystallizing. Cook the mixture without stirring until it registers 240°F on a sugar thermometer, then add the lemon juice. Brush down the sides of the pan two more times and continue cooking the mixture until it registers 310°F on the thermometer.
• Remove the pan from the heat. Holding a small fruit by the toothpick, dip the fruit into the sugar syrup, coating it completely. Lift the fruit from the syrup, gently shake off the excess syrup, and place the fruit onto the waxed paper. Repeat with the remaining small fruit. If the sugar syrup begins to firm up while you are working, warm it over medium heat until it is liquid again. Let the glaze set up at room temperature (about 10 minutes).
• Place the toothpicks into the holes in the grapefruit. Keep the fruit at room temperature until serving time. Serve the fruit within 12 hours of preparation.
