Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 cups grated zucchini (about 1 medium zucchini)
  • 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce
  • 1/3 cup vegetable oil or melted coconut oil
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
  • 1/4 cup chopped walnuts or pecans (optional)
  • 1/4 cup dairy-free chocolate chips (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.
  2. Grate the zucchini and squeeze out excess moisture using a clean towel or cheesecloth.
  3. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
  4. In another bowl, mix the brown sugar, granulated sugar, applesauce, oil, and vanilla extract until combined.
  5. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix.
  6. Fold in the grated zucchini, and if using, nuts and/or chocolate chips.
  7. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top.
  8. Bake for 50–60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  9. Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • Ensure the zucchini is well-drained to prevent soggy bread.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerate for longer shelf life.
  • Can be frozen for up to 2 months.
  • Optional mix-ins like nuts or chocolate chips add texture and flavor.
