Method

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease two 9 X 9 pans. In a large bowl beat eggs, add oil, vanilla, and sugar; blend well. Stir in zucchini and stir in flour, one cup at a time. Add salt, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger. Blend well but do not over-stir. Fold in blueberries and top with streusel. Bake at 350 degrees for 35-45 minutes, or until center is almost set. Cake may appear underdone in center, but after cooling, it will be moist, soft, and delicious.
