Zucchini Bread

Makes 2 standard loaves or 4 mini loavesPosted August 18, 2013

We are seeing an abundance of locally grown zucchini this year. Zucchini bread has a similar consistency to banana bread and is another great healthy alternative.

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Grease 2 loaf pans (or 4 mini loaf pans).
  3. Mix the dry ingredients together.
  4. Make a well in the middle, add the liquid ingredients and the grated zucchini (and nuts, if using) and mix together well.
  5. Pour into the prepared pans.
  6. Bake for 45–60 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

M.D. Notes

  • Zucchini is a rich source of vitamin C, vitamin B6 and riboflavin.
  • It is a good source of fiber.
