Ingredients

Units Scale

Ingredients:

  • 2 cups grated zucchini (squeezed to remove excess moisture)
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup chopped walnuts or pecans (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven: Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan or line with parchment paper.
  2. Mix dry ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  3. Combine wet ingredients: In a large bowl, beat together vegetable oil, granulated sugar, brown sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth. Stir in grated zucchini.
  4. Combine mixtures: Gradually add dry ingredients to wet ingredients, stirring just until combined. Fold in nuts if using.
  5. Bake: Pour batter into prepared pan and bake for 50–60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  6. Cool and serve: Let cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.

Notes

  • For extra moisture and flavor, let the zucchini sit after grating and then squeeze out as much liquid as possible.
  • This bread freezes well—wrap tightly and freeze for up to 3 months.
