Delicious Lemon Zucchini Bread Recipe for Your Family

Ingredients

Servings:
12
  • 1 cup grated zucchini
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup vegetable oil
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1 tbsp lemon zest
  • 1 cup lemon juice

Instructions

6 steps

  1. Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a loaf pan.

    Use parchment paper for easy removal after baking.
  2. Mix Wet Ingredients

    In a large bowl, whisk together the oil, sugar, eggs, vanilla, lemon juice, and lemon zest.

    Ensure eggs are at room temperature for better mixing.
  3. Combine Dry Ingredients

    In another bowl, combine flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon.

    Sift dry ingredients for a lighter texture.
  4. Fold in Zucchini

    Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet mixture, folding in the grated zucchini until just combined.

    Do not overmix to keep the bread fluffy.
  5. Bake the Bread

    Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and bake for 50-60 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.

    Check the bread at 50 minutes to avoid overbaking.
  6. Cool and Serve

    Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

    Slice after cooling for the best texture.
