Time 1h15m

Yield 2 loaves

Number Of Ingredients 14

Nonstick spray
1 cup finely grated zucchini (about 1 zucchini)
1 cup grated green apple, peeled and cored (about 1 apple)
1 1/4 cups packed light brown sugar
1 cup canola oil
3 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3 cups plus 1/2 teaspoon all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon freshly ground nutmeg
1 1/2 cups chopped walnuts

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Coat 2 (4 1/2 by 8 1/2-inch) loaf pans with nonstick spray. Line the pans with parchment paper and spray the paper.
  • Combine the zucchini, apple, brown sugar, oil, eggs and vanilla extract in a large bowl and stir to combine. Add 3 cups flour, salt, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon and nutmeg to the bowl and mix well. Toss the nuts with the remaining1/2 teaspoon flour to coat and prevent them from sinking. Gently stir in the nuts and the extract.
  • Divide the batter between the 2 loaf pans. Bake until a toothpick or skewer inserted in the middle of each loaf comes out clean, 50 minutes to 1 hour. Remove the bread from the pans and cool on a wire rack.

3 c white whole wheat flour or just whole wheat
1 zucchini, about medium size shredded
1 apple golden delicious or gala shredded
2 eggs
1 1/2 c applesauce unsweetened
1 1/2 Tbsp ground cinnamon
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp salt
1/4 c honey
1/4 c vegetable oil
1 1/2 c sugar
1 c chopped nuts pecans or walnuts
2 Tbsp pure vanilla extract

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees and prepare your loaf pans. Start shredding your zucchini and apple. Don't drain the zucchini set aside. Mix in apple sauce, eggs, oil, vanilla extract, honey and sugar and set mixture aside.
  • 2. Sift flour with salt, cinnamon, baking powder and baking soda. Fold in into zucchini mixture with wooden spoon or mixer until well combined. Divide batter into 2 loaf pans. Cook for 50-60 minutes until toothpick comes out clean. My oven takes about 50 minutes but every oven is different.
  • 3. Take out of oven and let it cool in pan for 10 minutes. Take out of pan and let the loafs cool on a wire rack or cutting board for 20 minutes. Start slicing and enjoy with butter or jam if desired or just by itself is really good.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe apples and zucchini. This will ensure that your bread is moist and flavorful.
  • Grate the zucchini and apples finely. This will help them blend into the batter more easily.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the bread tough.
  • Bake the bread until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. This will ensure that the bread is cooked through.

Conclusion:

Zucchini and apple bread is a delicious and easy-to-make quick bread. It's perfect for breakfast, lunch, or a snack. It is a great way to use up extra zucchini and apples. This bread is also a good source of fiber and vitamins.
