Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/3 cup (76g/80ml) avocado oil
  • 1/2 cup (180g/120ml) honey
  • 1 large egg, at room temperature
  • 1/2 cup (120g) plain greek yogurt, at room temperature
  • 1 and 1/2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
  • 1 and 1/2 cups (188g) all-purpose flour (spooned & leveled)
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 cup (130g) shredded zucchini
  • optional: 2 teaspoons orange zest
  • optional: 3/4 cup (95g) chopped walnuts, raisins/dried cranberries, or chocolate chips
  • optional: coarse sugar, for sprinkling

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (177°C) and grease an 8.5×4.5-inch loaf pan.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine the oil, honey, egg, Greek yogurt, and vanilla until smooth.
  3. In a separate large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon. Combine the wet and dry ingredients gently, being careful not to overmix. The batter will be thick. Incorporate the shredded zucchini, orange zest, and any optional add-ins.
  4. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top. Optionally, sprinkle with coarse sugar before baking.
  5. Bake for 50–55 minutes, tenting with foil halfway through to avoid over-browning. Check for doneness with a toothpick.
  6. Once baked, remove from the oven and allow to cool in the pan on a cooling rack for an hour. Then, transfer bread to the rack to cool completely.
  7. Slice and serve. Store leftovers at room temperature for up to 4 days or in the refrigerator for up to a week.

Notes

Make sure ingredients are at room temperature for best results.
This bread can be customized by adding nuts or dried fruit according to preference.
