Easy Zucchini Bread Ingredients:

I just love how quick and easy this zucchini bread is to make. The ingredients are simple and all in the pantry. Mix them all together to create the perfect zucchini bread for your family this summer!

Flour: Helps thick the bread and lifts it with the help of baking soda. Cinnamon: Just a hint for a slight spice in the mixture. Salt: Add a pinch! Baking Soda: Raises the loaf of bread as it is baking. Canola Oil: Is best for baking bread. Sugar: Sweetness is added in the bread mix. Brown Sugar: Moistens the bread with sweetness. Eggs: Creates a higher rise when baking. Vanilla: Great for flavoring! Sour Cream: Making the inside moist and savory. Zucchini: Grated and strained for best results.

How to Make the Best Zucchini Bread:

Mix the dry ingredients together first. Then blend together the wet and dry. Simply add in zucchini and bake. This homemade bread will smell so good as it is baking in your oven. One of the best breads you will ever make!

Tips and Variations:

Here are a few tips and variations to use when making zucchini bread. It is always fun to add in or create a recipe that is your own. Try these ideas or add-ins for extra help while you are baking in the kitchen.

Zucchini: Wash the zucchini and cut of both ends. Leaving the skin on the zucchini, grate the zucchini the best that you can using a paper towel or strainer. Once the water has been released place in the bowl to be blended in the bread mix. Fresh Zucchini: It is best to use garden fresh zucchini. Store bought zucchini has been sitting in several trucks and boxes before it arrives in a store to be sold. It is not as fresh and moist as a garden zucchini is. Add Ins: Chocolate chips or nuts are always a fun add in to put in the zucchini bread. Add in ½ cup to ¾ cup chocolate chips or nuts into the blended mixture before baking. Baked Bread: For best results use a toothpick to insert into the center of the bread. If the toothpick comes out clean that is the best indication that your bread is fully cooked through.

Storing Quick Bread:

This zucchini bread is not going to last long. It is a favorite family recipe and quickly gone before I am ready to store it. Usually doubling the recipe helps me be able to store a few slices for a day, hopefully!

Storing Zucchini Quick Bread: Store the homemade baked bread in a ziplock bag. Leave out in room temperature for about 3 to 4 days long. Slice when ready to serve. Freezing Zucchini Bread: Follow the instructions to make the best zucchini bread. Once it has completely cooled, wrap tightly in plastic wrap and then aluminum foil. Add it to a ziplock or freezer bag. Place in the freezer up to 1 month long. When ready to thaw, place in the refrigerator over night and unwrap to serve.

I bake all the time and it wasn’t even as thick as pancake batter. So, I added 3/4 a cup of flour, (x4 of course because I was making a quadruple batch). This addition of flour made it look the right consistency for a quick bread. It came out just right, maybe a little extra tender, but my husband and I like it that way. Anyway, just thought I’d let you know. Comment * Name * Email * Website
