Step 1

Preheat oven to 180°C. Grease and line the base of a 25 x 10cm loaf pan.

Step 2

Sift flour, sugar, cinnamon, baking powder, soda anda pinch of salt into a large bowl. Add zucchini, raisins, sultanas and pecans. Whisk together eggs, vanilla and oil, and stir into dry ingredients. Pour into prepared pan and bake for 1-1 1/4 hours or until a skewer inserted into cake comes out clean. Allow to cool slightly, then place on a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 3

To make the icing, combine the icing sugar, rind and juice, and stir until the mixture is smooth. When the cake is cold, drizzle with icing, allowing it to run down the sides, and top with extra nuts. This cake keeps well for 4-5 days in an airtight container.
