Ingredients

Scale

For the Bread:

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 ½ tsp cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp nutmeg (optional, for extra warmth)
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted (or ½ cup oil for extra moisture)
  • 1/4 cup milk (or buttermilk for extra richness)
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 ½ cups shredded zucchini (don’t drain)

Cinnamon-Sugar Topping:

  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tsp cinnamon

Instructions

  • Preheat Oven and Prepare Pan: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan.

  • Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg.

  • Prepare Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, beat together the granulated sugar, brown sugar, eggs, melted butter (or oil), milk (or buttermilk), and vanilla extract until smooth.

  • Add Zucchini: Stir the shredded zucchini into the wet ingredients.

  • Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients: Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.

  • Make Cinnamon-Sugar Topping: In a small bowl, mix together the granulated sugar and cinnamon for the topping.

  • Assemble the Bread: Pour half of the batter into the prepared loaf pan. Sprinkle half of the cinnamon-sugar mixture over the batter. Add the remaining batter and top with the rest of the cinnamon-sugar.

  • Bake: Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

  • Cool and Serve: Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack. Slice and enjoy!

Notes

  • You can substitute buttermilk for a richer flavor, or oil for extra moisture.
  • Feel free to add nuts or raisins if desired for extra texture!
