GLUTEN-FREE ZUCCHINI BREAD (OR MUFFINS)



Gluten-Free Zucchini Bread (or Muffins) image

Got this recipe from someone else but made some changes to it, to make it not taste gluten-free. My family loves bread and my husband is always looking for something that taste 'normal'. So this is as close as it gets for muffins. They are actually really good. The extra applesauce really makes it moist and not too dry! The batter will look runny but when you take them out of the oven they will be nice and soft. I can't keep them long, they go so fast!

GLUTEN FREE ZUCCHINI BREAD OR MUFFINS



Gluten Free Zucchini Bread or Muffins image

This is a recipe my mother-in-law gave me that I converted to be gluten free. It was originally from a cookbook that she bought in Pennsylvania. You can also sub some of the zucchini for grated carrots. For example, 1 cup zucchini, 1 cup grated carrots, instead of 2 cups zucchini.

GLUTEN-FREE ZUCCHINI BREAD



Gluten-Free Zucchini Bread image

By the end of the summer, we're all overloaded with zucchini. We've sauteed it, made it into fritters, used it as pasta noodles, and tried to give it to our neighbors. But they've been growing zucchini too. What to do with all that zucchini? Make some of this zucchini bread, of course. It's spiced with cinnamon, nutmeg, and cardamom, slightly sweet, and super moist. Best of all, it doesn't taste of zucchini at all. Pick another zucchini out of the garden.

Provided by Shauna Ahern

Yield 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

1 large zucchini
210 grams All-Purpose Gluten-Free Flour Mix, recipe follows
1 teaspoon psyllium husk
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon cardamom
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 egg
1/2 cup white sugar
1/3 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup olive oil
1/4 cup Greek yogurt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
400 grams millet flour
300 grams sweet rice flour
300 grams potato starch

Steps:

  • Preparing to bake: Heat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 9- by 4-inch loaf pan.
  • Grating the zucchini: Grate the zucchini into a bowl. Put it in a double layer of paper towels. Squeeze the water out of the zucchini into the sink. This will help the zucchini bread to not be too wet. Set aside about 225 grams (or about 2 cups) of the drained zucchini.
  • Combining the dry ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the flour mix, psyllium, baking powder, soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, cardamom, and salt.
  • Combining the wet ingredients: Whisk together the egg, sugars, olive oil, yogurt, and vanilla extract.
  • Finishing the batter: Plop the drained zucchini into the liquids and whisk them together. Sprinkle the dry ingredients over the top of the liquids. Using a rubber spatula, fold the dry ingredients into the wet until no sign of flours remain.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared pan. Slide the pan into the oven and bake until the top of the bread is crackly brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out dry, 45 to 55 minutes.
  • Allow the bread to cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Turn it onto a cooling rack and let it cool to room temperature before slicing into it.
  • Pour all the flours into a large container. (Restaurant supply stores sell large plastic containers that fit this purpose well. You could also use a large glass jar.) Shake and shake and shake harder until all the flours have become one color.

Time 45m

Yield 24 muffins, 24 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 1/2 cups sorghum flour
1 cup brown rice flour
1 cup tapioca flour
1 1/2 cups sucanat
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 1/2 teaspoons xanthan gum
2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
1/2 cup natural applesauce
1/2 cup non-dairy milk substitute (So Delicious coconut milk beverage)
1/3 cup coconut oil or 1/3 cup light olive oil
2 eggs
3 cups zucchini, grated
1/3 cup cacao, powder or 1/2 cup of allergen-free chocolate chips

Steps:

  • Mix all the dry ingredients together first in a large mixing bowl, then add the wet ingredients and mix well. Lastly add the heaping 3 cups of grated zucchini. The way I grate zucchini is on a cheese grater over a plate and it usually takes about 1 large zucchini to get about 3 heaping cups. Use the juices and all the grated parts. Mix all together and it is ready for putting in pans.
  • Some baking options:.
  • This recipe will make either 24 muffin cups, or 2 loaf pans. You could also use 2 8x8 pans for this recipe, or even 1 9x13 pan. It makes a beautiful cake, bread, and muffin, so use for what you desire most. The muffins should be baked at 350 degrees for 20-25 minutes, the bread loaves should be baked at around 35-40 minutes, and a cake in a 9x13 should be around 30-40 minutes. Just check on it and pull from the oven when it is a golden brown color and after tested with a pick comes out clean with nothing gooey. The best baking temp is at 350 degrees. After pulled from the oven, make sure you cool for at least 10-15 minutes before cutting into. And, let it be fully cooled before bagging up to freeze for best results.
  • Other option:.
  • If you only want to make one loaf, then half this recipe and make just one loaf or 12 muffins.
