Delicious Zucchini Walnut Bread Recipe - Easy to Make

Ingredients

Servings:
16
  • 2 cups zucchini, grated (Packed and drained)
  • 1 cup walnuts, chopped (Lightly toasted for extra flavor)
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup brown sugar (Packed tightly)
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp cinnamon, ground
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 cup vegetable oil (Can substitute with applesauce for a lighter option)
  • 2 large eggs (Beaten)
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

7 steps

  1. Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x5 inch loaf pan.

    Use parchment paper for easier removal.
  2. Mix Dry Ingredients

    In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt.

    Sifting the flour helps to make the bread lighter.
  3. Prepare Wet Ingredients

    In another bowl, combine the grated zucchini, oil, eggs, and vanilla extract.

    Ensure the zucchini is well-drained to avoid excess moisture.
  4. Combine Mixtures

    Fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until just combined. Do not overmix.

    A few lumps are fine; overmixing can make the bread dense.
  5. Add Walnuts

    Gently fold in the chopped walnuts.

    Reserve some walnuts for topping if desired.
  6. Bake

    Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top. Bake for 50-60 minutes.

    Check for doneness with a toothpick; it should come out clean.
  7. Cool and Serve

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

    Slice and enjoy warm or at room temperature.
