Categories     Breads

Time 1h30m

Yield Two {8½ x 4½-inch|22 x 11-cm} loaves

Number Of Ingredients 13

3 cups all-purpose flour, spooned into measuring cup and leveled-off
2½ teaspoons ground cinnamon
½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
3 large eggs
1¾ cup granulated sugar
2 cups grated zucchini (you'll need two medium zucchinis; do not wring out the liquid)
2 sticks (1 cup) unsalted butter, melted and slightly cooled
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 cup chopped walnuts, lightly toasted if desired
½ cup currants or raisins (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325°F and set rack in middle position. Generously grease two 8½ x 4½-inch loaf pans with nonstick cooking spray.
  • In a medium bowl, combine the flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, baking soda, baking powder and salt. Use a whisk to mix well.
  • In a large bowl, whisk the eggs with the sugar. Add the grated zucchini, melted butter, and vanilla extract; using a wooden spoon or rubber spatula, stir to combine.
  • Add the dry ingredients to liquid ingredients and mix until just combined. Add the nuts and currants, then divide the batter evenly into the prepared pans. Bake for 60 to 65 minutes, or until a cake tester comes out clean. Set the pans on a wire rack and let cool for about 10 minutes, then turn the loaves out onto rack to cool completely.
  • Note: You can also add chocolate chips to this bread. I typically use between ¾ to 1 cup chocolate chips instead of nuts and currants. Whatever combination you use, just be sure total add-ins (nuts, currants, chips) do not exceed 1½ cups.
  • Freezer-Friendly Instructions: The bread can be frozen for up to 3 months. After it is completely cooled, wrap it securely in aluminum foil, freezer wrap or place in a freezer bag. Thaw overnight in the refrigerator before serving.

Tips:

  • Use fresh zucchini: Fresh zucchini has a higher water content, which makes for a moist bread. If using older zucchini, grate it and squeeze out any excess moisture before adding it to the batter.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make the bread tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Use a loaf pan with a center tube: This will help the bread bake evenly. If you don't have a loaf pan with a center tube, you can use a regular loaf pan, but the bread may take longer to bake.
  • Bake the bread until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: This usually takes about 1 hour. If the bread is not done baking, continue baking for a few more minutes.
  • Let the bread cool completely before slicing: This will help the bread hold its shape. Once the bread is cool, you can slice it and enjoy!

Conclusion:

Zucchini bread is a delicious and versatile quick bread that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dessert. It's also a great way to use up extra zucchini from your garden. With so many different recipes to choose from, there's sure to be a zucchini bread recipe that you'll love. So next time you have some zucchini on hand, give one of these recipes a try!
