Delicious zucchini bread recipe
10.8 years ago Uncategorized
The great thing about growing zucchini in your garden is it is a great producer, but at times you can get overwhelmed with the yields but fortunately zucchini bread is a delicious way to take a care of this problem. Below is my favorite recipe, typically you would swap out the chocolate chips with something like walnuts but have a kiddo with nut allergies and it is always easier to get kids to eat some veggies hidden in bread when you add a little chocolate 🙂
- 1.5 cups flour
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 2 eggs
- ¼ cup vegetable oil
- ¼ cup butter (softened)
- 1¼ cups white sugar
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 cups grated zucchini (one medium zucchini)
- ⅓ cup chocolate chips
- Grease one 8 x 4 inch bread pan. Preheat oven to 325 degrees F .
- Add flour, salt, baking powder/soda, and cinnamon in a small bowl.
- Beat eggs, butter, oil, vanilla, and sugar together in a large bowl. Flour from bowl to the creamed mixture, and beat well. Stir in zucchini and chocolate chips until well combined. Pour batter into prepared pan.
- Bake for 45 to 60 minutes, or until wooden toothpick/skewer comes out clean when inserted in the center. Cool in pan on rack for 20 minutes
If you own a food processor you can shred the zucchini, switch to the chopper attachment and pulse for 2-3 seconds and remove zucchini into small bowl. Add wet ingredients and turn on for 30 seconds, add dry ingredients, zucchini, and chocolate chips and run for 5-10 seconds (until well combined) and you are ready to pour into pans and bake to deliciousness.
