Banana Zucchini Bread Recipe:- The Banana Zucchini Bread is a quick bread that is moist and tasty. It is created with ripe bananas and shredded zucchini, and it can be enjoyed as a wonderful snack or with a refreshing cup of coffee. It is an excellent method for making use of any courgette that you might still have in your possession. The Banana Zucchini Muffins that I make are the inspiration for this fantastic bread.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups finely shredded zucchini, from 1½ medium zucchini
  • 2 cups (250 g) all-purpose flour
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • 2 ripe bananas, mashed (about 1 cup)
  • 1 cup (200 g) granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs, room temperature
  • 1 cup (218 g) canola oil
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract

 

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F and spray a 9×5-inch loaf pan with non-stick spray.
  • Rinse the zucchini and trim off the ends. Use a fine grater to shred the zucchini. Gently wrap the shredded zucchini in a clean towel and squeeze out any excess water. Set aside.
  • In a medium bowl whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt.
  • To a large bowl, add the bananas. Use a fork to mash. Add in the sugar, eggs, oil, and vanilla. Stir until fully combined.
  • Add the flour mixture, and stir until just combined.
  • Add in the grated zucchini and stir until incorporated.
  • Pour into the prepared pan.
  • Bake until a toothpick comes out clean, about 70-80 minutes, checking the bread at 70 minutes. The outside will be dark brown and an inserted toothpick should be removed with crumbs, but not wet batter. If the loaf is getting too dark, you can add an aluminum foil tent for the last 10-15 minutes.
  • Let the bread cool slightly before cutting and serving.

Banana Zucchini Bread

In the event that you have never employed courgette in a recipe before, this would be an excellent choice for your very first attempt. Bread receives a significant amount of moisture from the zucchini. In addition, I am a huge fan of banana bread, so it was a no-brainer for me to combine the flavours that I enjoy most about both loaves of bread!

Bread Ingredients & Substitutions

Flour: I used all-purpose flour in the recipe. You could substitute gluten-free flour as well.

Bananas: You will need two ripe bananas for the best results. If you have any older bananas with some brown specks on them, they are perfect!

Zucchini: The number of zucchini you need will depend on the size of each. I used 1 1/2 medium zucchini to finely shred into 2 cups. Finely shredded zucchini that has been lightly squeezed of moisture will give you the best results.

Variations to Banana Zucchini Bread

Although this bread is delicious as written, it is also easy to make your own. Here are some options that would be delightful additions:

  • Add nuts like walnuts or pecans to the batter.
  • Fold in chocolate chips or white chocolate chips.
  • Make a whipped cream cheese frosting (from my Zucchini Banana Cake) to top the bread.
