Time 3h5m

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 10

½ cup water
2 teaspoons honey
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
¾ cup grated zucchini
¾ cup whole wheat flour
2 cups bread flour
1 tablespoon chopped fresh basil
2 teaspoons sesame seeds
1 teaspoon salt
1 ½ teaspoons active dry yeast

Nutrition Facts : Calories 152.9 calories, Carbohydrate 28.3 g, Fat 2.3 g, Fiber 2.1 g, Protein 5 g, SaturatedFat 0.3 g, Sodium 234.9 mg, Sugar 1.5 g

Tips:

  • Prep the Zucchini Properly: To ensure the zucchini doesn't release too much moisture into the bread, grate it using the large holes of a box grater. Then, sprinkle it with salt and let it rest for 10 minutes before squeezing out the excess moisture with a paper towel.
  • Use Fresh Herbs: Fresh herbs like basil, thyme, and parsley add a burst of flavor to the bread. Chop them finely to evenly distribute their taste throughout the loaf.
  • Don't Overmix the Batter: Overmixing the batter can result in a tough, dense bread. Mix just until the ingredients are combined. A few small lumps are perfectly fine.
  • Bake Until a Toothpick Comes Out Clean: To ensure the bread is cooked through, insert a toothpick into the center. If it comes out clean, the bread is ready. If not, bake for a few minutes longer.
  • Allow the Bread to Cool Before Slicing: Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely. This prevents the bread from crumbling when sliced.

Conclusion:

Herbed zucchini cheese bread is a versatile and flavorful quick bread that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. It's easy to make and packed with fresh zucchini, herbs, and cheese. With its moist texture and cheesy, savory flavor, this bread is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
