Description

This moist zucchini bread is perfect for breakfast or a snack!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour (or whole wheat flour, * see notes)
  • 1/2 cup coconut sugar
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/2 cup Greek yogurt
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 large bananas (mashed)
  • 1 large zucchini (shredded and excess moisture removed, about 1 1/2 to 1 3/4 cups shredded)
  • 1/2 cup mix-ins (chocolate chips or walnuts)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 180C/350F. Grease and line a 9 x 5-inch pan and set aside.
  2. In a mixing bowl, add the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg, yogurt, vanilla, and bananas.
  4. Gently add the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until combined. Fold through the zucchini and any mix-ins of choice.
  5. Transfer the batter into a lined pan and bake for 45-55 minutes, or until a skewer comes out mostly clean. The cooking time depends on the oven, so check at the 45-minute mark.
  6. Remove the zucchini bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan completely before slicing and serving.

Notes

  • This bread can be made with either all-purpose or whole wheat flour. Use your preferred flour for different flavor and texture.
