Essential Ingredients

• Vegetable Oil: For zucchini bread, I always use a neutral oil in place of butter. It stays supple and wet as a result. Canola oil is another option.
• Sugar: Both brown sugar and granulated sugar are used in this recipe. I enjoy the combination because of the color, the subtle flavor that the brown sugar adds, and the way it keeps the zucchini bread moist.
• Ground cinnamon is a traditional flavoring component.
• Together, baking powder and soda produce a quick bread that is moist, fluffy, and pliable.
• The most crucial ingredient is the shredded zucchini! Just in case, make sure to grab one large or two small/medium zucchini. Shred it by hand. Unless clothing has been frozen and is quite wet, there is no need to dry it out.

Variations

• Mix-Ins: To give this bread a unique taste, add a quarter cup of mix-ins. Add chocolate chips, chopped nuts (walnuts or pecans work nicely), chopped fruit (blueberries, cut strawberries, raspberries), or chopped nuts. Add the zucchini and stir to combine.
• Muffins: Instead of making a loaf, you can also use the batter to create zucchini muffins.

For Shredding Zucchini for Bread

Using a box grater to grind zucchini is my preferred method. Use the big holes to tear it apart. If you need to grate a lot of zucchini, you can use the shredder attachment on your food processor. Unless the zucchini is quite moist from being frozen and thawed, there is no need to pat it dry. If that’s the case, dab it dry with paper towels; the moisture in the shredded zucchini is what keeps this recipe for zucchini bread moist.
