Zucchini Nutmeg Bread Recipes

ZUCCHINI SPICE BREAD

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Lightly coat a 9-by-5-by-3-inch loaf pan with cooking spray, and set aside. Grate zucchini on the large holes of a box grater (to yield 1 3/4 cups); set aside. In a large bowl, whisk together sugars, oil, vanilla, and eggs.
• Into a small bowl, sift together flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, cloves, and salt. Add flour mixture to egg mixture, and stir to combine well. Stir in grated zucchini.
• Pour batter into prepared pan, spreading evenly. Bake until a toothpick inserted in center of loaf comes out clean, 45 to 55 minutes. Cool in pan 10 minutes; invert onto a wire rack, then reinvert, top side up. Cool completely before slicing.

MOM'S SPICED ZUCCHINI BREAD

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease two 9x5-inch loaf pans.
• Beat sugar, oil, eggs, and vanilla extract together in a bowl until smooth; fold in zucchini. Stir flour, cinnamon, salt, baking soda, nutmeg, baking powder, and cloves together in a separate bowl; gradually stir into sugar mixture until batter is mixed. Fold walnuts and raisins into the batter; pour into the prepared loaf pans.
• Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted in the center of the bread comes out clean, about 50 minutes.

EASY VEGAN ZUCCHINI BREAD

Steps:

• Start by pre-heating the oven to 350 degrees. Then line a 8 1/2 x 4 in (standard 1 lb) loaf pan with parchment paper and grease the bottom and sides with refined coconut oil.
• Then grate a large zucchini using a box grater. I like to put the whole grater in a bowl to catch all of the zucchini, and then I grate this on side with the large holes. Put the shredded zucchini in a colander so the extra water can drain while you prep the other ingredients.
• Next, mix the ground flax seeds and water in a small bowl. Stir and set aside to thicken.
• In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Mix well and set aside.
• In another large bowl, combine the sugar and the coconut oil. Whisk for 1 full minute. Then add the vinegar and thickened flax egg and whisk for 2 minutes ( I set a timer ????) It should be lighter in color and much thicker and fluffier than when you started.
• Then, with clean hands, gently squeeze the zucchini in your fist to remove the excess water. You don't have to completely ring it dry, just a good squeeze to dry it out a bit. Then measure out 1.5 cups and add it into the bowl with the wet ingredients. Mix well.
• Then add 1/2 of the dry ingredients into the bowl with the wet ingredients and stir. When combined, add the remaining dry ingredients and mix until the flour is no longer visible, but be careful not to beat/over mix.
• Stir in the pecans so they're evenly distributed in the batter and then transfer to the prepared loaf pan. Smooth out the top lightly, and bake for 1 hour. In my oven, it takes exactly 1 hour and five minutes. It's better to let it go a little longer than you think it needs or else the inside will be doughy.
• Side note: Your kitchen should smell AMAZING at this point, so take a moment to enjoy how cozy it feels to have a kitchen that smells like baked goods and cinnamon. It's the little things ????
• After about an hour, insert a toothpick into the center. If it comes out clean you can remove the pan from the oven and set it on a rack to cool. After 5-10 minutes, gently remove the zucchini bread from the pan and allow it to finish cooling on the rack (This will allow the crumb structure to develop nicely)
• I usually wait about 20 minutes before slicing (it will still be warm, don't worry) and then I enjoy this with a cup of tea or coffee. So good! Hope you love it ????

CHEF JOHN'S ZUCCHINI BREAD

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Generously butter two loaf pans.

• Combine eggs, sugar, and vanilla in another large mixing bowl, and whisk until mixture is smooth and turns a pale yellow, about 1 minute. Grab a handful of the drained zucchini with both hands and squeeze out any excess water before transferring into the egg-sugar mixture. Repeat until all the zucchini has been transferred in.
• Pour in melted butter and stir until combined. Stir walnuts into the batter, followed by the flour mixture. Use a spatula to mix until the flour disappears.
• Transfer into the prepared loaf pans. Tap pans on the countertop to settle the batter.
• Bake in the center of the preheated oven until golden brown on top and a skewer poked in the center comes out clean, about 50 minutes. Let cool for 10 minutes in the pan, and then turn out on to a cooling rack. Let cool completely before serving.
