Nonstick cooking spray
1 large zucchini
1 cup packed light-brown sugar
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
2/3 cup vegetable oil
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 large eggs
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

PUMPKIN BANANA ZUCCHINI SPICE BREAD



Pumpkin Banana Zucchini Spice Bread image

I've been working on perfecting this recipe for a few years. If my family & extended family's picky toddlers & even pickier teens who'll literally LIVE on it while it lasts are any indication... then by goodness I think I've got it! So easily interchangeable with whatever you have on hand. Ex: Pumpkana; Nanacchini; Zumpkin... I have no end of fun inventing names for various mixes lol & of course you can always use just pumpkin, just bananas, etc.

Time 1h15m

Yield 2 loaves, 24-30 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 17

4 eggs (I use large)
1/2 cup milk (I use 2%)
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1/2 cup applesauce (I keep those single serving ones on hand so I don't need to use a whole jar before it spoils)
1/2 cup butter (soft not melted)
1 1/2 cups white sugar
1 1/2 cups brown sugar (not packed, just scooped like the white)
2 -3 cups bananas (however you wish to break it down) or 2 -3 cups zucchini (however you wish to break it down)
2 teaspoons vanilla (I'm a stickler for real vanilla in baking)
3 cups all-purpose flour (SIFTED)
2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt (or I use just a dash of natural sea salt)
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350. Don't be afraid to leave the mixer in the cupboard! I always stir this up by hand w/ no trouble & I have rheumatoid arthritis.
  • In large mixing bowl combine: eggs, milk, oil, applesauce, butter, sugars, pumpkin etc., vanilla. I usually give each ingredient a good stirring before adding the next one. Mix well.
  • In separate bowl combine & mix dry ingredients. If you don't have a flour sifter, hold a whisk over measuring cup & sprinkle flour above it. It makes SO much difference to sift your flour. If you simply cannot do it, then cut flour back about 1/4 cup. Gradually add flour mix to first mixing bowl & beat together until smooth.
  • Grease & flour 2 loaf pans & evenly divide batter among them. Bake for 50-60 minutes until toothpick test comes out clean. Allow to cool 15-20 minutes (If you can wait that long!) and invert pans to rack to complete cooling. You'll likely need to run knife around edges & tap or even bang on the bottom a bit to remove.
  • Slice & Serve. Because it is such a moist bread, I always bag the 2nd loaf & hold it in the fridge until we finish the 1st loaf, just to guard against spoilage. I've heard it freezes lovely as well, but I've never made enough that it lasted long enough for me to try.
  • Note: This will be my first try at posting a recipe, though I've been lurking & gleaning marvelous ones for ages on here. I'm from that sect of guard your recipes or don't give exact instructions, lol -- however, it occurred to me it was time to share back -- hope you all enjoy! -Oz.

Date-Nut-Zucchini Spice Bread image

This is a delightful, moist, and flavourful treat. It doesn't feel or taste oily like most zucchini bread recipes. I created this recipe to use up those giant zucchinis. It is easily doubled and freezes well.

Time 1h20m

Yield 1 loaf, 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 cups zucchini, shredded
2 1/2 cups flour
8 teaspoons brown sugar
2 teaspoons baking soda
1 1/2 teaspoons allspice
1 teaspoon cinnamon
8 fresh dates, pitted & chopped
1/2 cup walnuts, chopped
2/3 cup molasses
3 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 eggs

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • Line a colander with several layers of paper towels. Place zucchini on top and cover with several more layers of paper towels. Add weight and set aside at least 15 minutes, pressing occasionally to remove moisture.
  • In a large bowl, combine flour, sugar baking soda, spices, dates (see note at the bottom), and walnuts.
  • Add zucchini and toss to coat.
  • In a separate container, mix the molasses with the oil and the eggs.
  • Create a well in the dry ingredients and add wet ingredients.
  • Stir with a wooden spoon until uniformly combined.
  • Pour into a loaf pan (approx. 9x5x3) and bake 50-55 minutes.
  • NOTE: When chopping dates, I usually add a spoonful of the dry ingredients and toss to coat. This prevents the date pieces from sticking together.
