Method
Preparing the Zucchini:
- Wash and dry the zucchini.
- Remove the skin if desired.
- Shred and squeeze out excess liquid.
Making the Bread:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a medium bowl, mix the dry ingredients (flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg).
- In a large bowl, combine the sugars and melted butter.
- Add eggs and vanilla extract to the large bowl and mix well.
- Gradually mix in the dry ingredients until just combined.
- Fold in the shredded zucchini.
Baking:
- Pour the batter into a greased 9x5 inch loaf pan.
- Mix the topping ingredients (sugar and cinnamon) and sprinkle on top.
- Bake for 50-60 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
- Cool on a wire rack.
Notes
- Ensure to squeeze out excess liquid from the zucchini to prevent the bread from becoming too dense.
- For a vegan version, substitute eggs with flax eggs and butter with a vegan alternative.
- For a gluten-free option, use a gluten-free flour blend.
