Time 1h40m

Yield Makes one 8-inch cake

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 1/2 sticks unsalted butter, melted, plus more for pan
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for pan
2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon anise seeds
1/8 teaspoon ground cardamom (optional)
Coarse salt
2 medium zucchini (about 8 ounces each)
3 large eggs
1 1/2 cups sugar
1/2 teaspoon grated orange zest, plus 1 tablespoon fresh orange juice
Orange Glaze
Candied Zucchini Strips, optional

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Brush a 6-cup Bundt pan with butter, and dust with flour, tapping out excess. Whisk together flour, baking powder, spices, and 1 teaspoon salt.
  • Grate zucchini on the large holes of a box grater, then squeeze dry in a clean kitchen towel or press in a ricer. (You will need 2 1/2 cups.)
  • Stir together eggs and sugar, then stir in melted butter, zucchini, and orange zest and juice. Stir in flour mixture. Transfer batter to pan.
  • Bake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 1 hour (cake will rise quite a bit over the top of the pan but should not run over). Transfer pan to a wire rack, and let cake cool for 10 minutes. Run a paring knife around edges of cake to loosen, and turn out onto wire rack. Let cool for at least 30 minutes.
  • Brush several layers of orange glaze evenly over cake, and garnish with candied zucchini before serving.

ZUCCHINI BUNDT CAKE WITH CRUNCHY LEMON GLAZE



ZUCCHINI BUNDT CAKE WITH CRUNCHY LEMON GLAZE image

Categories     Vegetable

Yield 10-12

Number Of Ingredients 18

For the cake:
1 cup (135g) almonds, pecans, or walnuts, toasted
2 cups (280g) flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon kosher or sea salt
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon dried ground ginger
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground nutmeg
3 large eggs, at room temperature
1 3/4 (350g) cups sugar
1 cup (250ml) extra-virgin olive oil
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 1/2 cups (300g) finely grated zucchini
For the lemon glaze:
1/4 cup (60ml) freshly squeezed lemon juice
1/3 cup (65g) granulated sugar
1 cup (140g) powdered (confectioner’s) sugar

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat the oven to 350ºF (180ºC). Grease a 10 cup (2.5l) bundt or tube cake pan* with non-stick spray or butter, dust with flour, then tap out any excess. 2. Pulse the nuts in a food processor until finely chopped. 3. In a medium bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, ginger, and nutmeg. Set aside. 4. In the bowl of a stand mixer with the paddle attachment, beat the eggs, 1 3/4 cup (350g) sugar, and olive oil for 3 minutes on medium speed, until light and fluffy. Stop and scrape down the sides of the mixer, then add the vanilla. 5. Mix in the dry ingredients, scraping down the sides of the mixer bowl to make sure everything is mixed in well, then beat on medium speed for 30 seconds. 6. Stir in the chopped nuts and zucchini. 7. Scrape the batter into the prepared cake pan, smooth the top, then bake the cake for 45 to 50 minutes, until the toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean and the cake has begun to pull away from the sides of the pan. 8. During the last few minutes of the cake baking, make the glaze by whisking together the lemon juice, 1/3 cup (65g) granulated sugar, and powdered sugar. 9. Let the cake cool for 10 minutes, then carefully invert it onto a cooling rack. Brush the glaze over the cake with a pastry brush and let the cake cool completely. Storage: The cake can be wrapped (or put under a cake dome) and will keep for a few days. You can freeze the unglazed cake. However to apply the glaze, you’ll need to defrost the cake then warm it so the glaze will adhere properly. *If you don’t have a bundt or tube pan, I noticed that both Adam and Sara made the cake in a regular round cake pan with good results. This cake batter could also be baked in two loaf pans, which is easier for gift-giving, if you’re trying to share your zucchini bounty. You may need to reduce the baking time a little to compensate for the smaller pans.

ZUCCHINI-WALNUT BUNDT CAKE WITH CHOCOLATE GLAZE RECIPE - (4.5/5)



Zucchini-Walnut Bundt Cake with Chocolate Glaze Recipe - (4.5/5) image

Provided by ashleyeraas

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1 1/4 cup sugar
1 tablespoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup applesauce
3 large eggs
6 tablespoons safflower oil
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
3 cups zucchini, grated
1 1/2 cups toasted walnuts, chopped
6 ounces bittersweet chocolate, chopped
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
4 teaspoons whole milk

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350°F. Coat 12-cup Bundt pan with cooking spray. Sift flour, sugar, baking soda, and salt together in large bowl. Set aside. Whisk applesauce, eggs, safflower oil, and vanilla extract in medium bowl. Stir in dry ingredients until combined. Fold in grated zucchini and walnuts until incorporated. Pour into pan and bake until wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean, 40 to 45 minutes. Cool cake in pan 10 minutes, then remove and place on rack to cool. Place heatproof bowl over, but not touching, barely simmering water. Add the chocolate, butter, and milk. Stir until melted and smooth. Spoon glaze over cake and let set slightly before serving.

Tips:

  • Use fresh zucchini: Fresh zucchini has a higher water content and will produce a more moist cake.
  • Grate the zucchini: Grating the zucchini will help to distribute the moisture evenly throughout the cake.
  • Do not overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will result in a tough cake. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the cake at the right temperature: The cake should be baked at a moderate temperature (350 degrees Fahrenheit) to prevent it from overcooking.
  • Cool the cake completely before frosting: This will help to prevent the frosting from melting.

Conclusion:

Zucchini bundt cake is a delicious and versatile cake that can be enjoyed for breakfast, dessert, or a snack. It is a great way to use up extra zucchini and is a perfect cake for summer gatherings. With its moist texture, sweet flavor, and zesty lemon glaze, this cake is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
