Ingredients
Scale
- 1½ cups flour
- 1½ teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 2 teaspoons cinnamon
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1½ cups zucchini grated
- 2 bananas ripe and mashed
- 2 eggs
- ½ cups brown sugar
- 2 teaspoons vanilla
- ½ cup vegetable oil
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350ºF and grease a 4×8 loaf pan. Set the pan aside.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, salt, and nutmeg. Whisk together and set aside.
- In a medium-sized bowl, add the grated zucchini and use your hands to squeeze out excess water, ensuring the zucchini is as dry as possible.
- To the bowl with the zucchini, add the mashed banana and eggs, mixing well to combine.
- Mix in the brown sugar, vanilla, and vegetable oil until evenly blended.
- Gently fold the flour mixture into the zucchini mixture until combined, resulting in a thick batter.
- Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and bake for 45 minutes, or until the top is browned and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Allow the bread to cool in the pan for about 15 minutes before turning it out onto a cooling rack. Slice and enjoy!
Notes
Ensure the zucchini is well-drained for better texture in the bread.
Feel free to add nuts or chocolate chips for added flavor.
Store leftovers in an airtight container to keep the bread moist.
