Ingredients
  

For the Zucchini Bread
  • 2 cups grated zucchini about 1 medium zucchini
  • 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 0.5 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 0.5 teaspoon salt
  • 0.5 cup vegetable oil
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 0.5 cup chopped walnuts or pecans optional

Equipment

  • 9x5 inch loaf pan
  • Mixing bowls
  • Whisk
  • Spatula or Wooden Spoon
  • Grater
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Toothpick
  • Wire Rack

Method
 

  1. Step 1: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan with oil or cooking spray to prevent sticking.
  2. Step 2: In a medium bowl, mix together the grated zucchini, all-purpose flour, baking soda, baking powder, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, and salt. Stir until well combined and set aside.
  3. Step 3: In a large bowl, whisk together the vegetable oil, granulated sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth and well combined.
  4. Step 4: Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet mixture, stirring gently until just combined. If you’re adding walnuts or pecans, fold them in at this stage.
  5. Step 5: Pour the prepared batter into your greased loaf pan. Use a spatula to spread it evenly, ensuring that the top is smooth.
  6. Step 6: Place the loaf pan in the preheated oven and bake for 55-65 minutes. To check for doneness, insert a toothpick into the center of the bread; it should come out clean or with a few moist crumbs.
  7. Step 7: Once baked, remove the bread from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Then, carefully transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
