Ingredients

Scale

Wet Ingredients

  • 2 medium zucchinis, grated and drained
  • 1 cup Greek yogurt
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup white sugar

Dry Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg

Optional Add-Ins

  • 1/2 cup nuts (such as walnuts or pecans), chopped
  • 1/2 cup chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Zucchini: Wash and grate about two medium zucchinis. Squeeze out any excess moisture using a clean kitchen towel to prevent sogginess in the bread.
  2. Mix the Wet Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, Greek yogurt, vanilla extract, brown sugar, and white sugar until smooth and creamy.
  3. Combine the Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg to evenly distribute the leavening agents and spices.
  4. Bring It All Together: Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture with gentle stirring to keep the batter light. Fold in the drained grated zucchini and any optional nuts or chocolate chips.
  5. Bake to Perfection: Pour the batter into a greased loaf pan and bake at 350°F (175°C) for 50–60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Allow to cool before slicing.

Notes

  • Drain the zucchini thoroughly to avoid a soggy loaf.
  • Do not overmix the batter to keep the bread tender.
  • Check doneness with a toothpick inserted into the center.
  • Use room temperature eggs and yogurt for better batter consistency.
  • Let the bread cool fully on a wire rack for the best texture.
