Ingredients:

First of all, gather all the ingredients you need for this recipe. I recommend that you do not change the quantities, as I have already adjusted them over the years.

• 1 cup grated zucchini (about 1 medium zucchini)
• 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 cup vegetable oil
• 1/2 cup granulated sugar
• 1/2 cup brown sugar
• 2 large eggs
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Step By Step:

I will try to simplify this step by step as much as possible. We don’t need to complicate what isn’t complicated, don’t you think? So, check out the simplified step-by-step guide below.

Step 1 – Preheat your oven

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9×5 inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.

Step 2 – Prepare the zucchini

Grate the zucchini using a box grater or a food processor. Set aside.

Step 3 – Mix the dry ingredients

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

Step 4 – Mix the wet ingredients

In a large bowl, beat the eggs. Add the vegetable oil, granulated sugar, brown sugar, and vanilla extract. Mix until well combined.

Step 5 – Combine wet and dry ingredients

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined. Do not overmix.

Step 6 – Add zucchini

Fold in the grated zucchini until evenly distributed throughout the batter

Step 7 – Bake and Cool

Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Allow the bread to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
