How To Make Zucchini Bread
Zucchini bread or zucchini muffins—whichever way you decide to enjoy this healthy zucchini bread recipe, it comes together fast, just like any other quick bread recipe. Here’s how to make it:
- Sift the dry ingredients!
- Whisk the wet ingredients.
- Combine the wet and dry ingredients—this is the moment to be careful about over-mixing. Stir the ingredients together, but just enough to combine them. Once the zucchini muffin mixture looks uniform, stop mixing.
- Fold in the grated zucchini.
- Bake! If you’re using muffin tins, the bake time is fast, which is really nice if you’ve got hungry mouths clamouring for a snack. If you prefer a sliceable zucchini bread loaf, bake time will be longer.
Tools You’ll Need :
- Two 12-muffin tins or two loaf pans—this recipe can be used to make zucchini muffins OR zucchini bread loaves.
- A large bowl.
- A box grater or grater attachment for your food processor.
- Measuring cups.
- Measuring spoons.
