Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour

  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cups shredded zucchini (about 1 medium)

Instructions

  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing until just combined.
  6. Gently fold in the chopped strawberries.
  7. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top.
  8. Bake for 55–65 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  9. Allow to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • Make sure to squeeze out excess moisture from the shredded zucchini before adding it.
  • Use fresh, ripe strawberries for best flavor and texture.
