Ingredients

Scale

Shredded Zucchini

  • 1 1/2 cups shredded zucchini

Dry Ingredients

  • 2 cups plain white flour
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp table salt

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 cup milk (2%, whole, or nonfat)
  • 1 tbsp white or apple cider vinegar
  • 1 large egg
  • 3 tbsp unsalted butter, melted

Additional Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups sharp cheddar cheese, grated
  • 2 chopped green onions

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Prepare Baking Pan and Zucchini

    Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and spray a 9 x 5 inch bread pan with non-stick spray. Wrap the shredded zucchini in a paper towel and gently squeeze out excess liquid. You don’t need to dry it completely—just release about a tablespoon of liquid.

  2. Step 2: Mix Dry Ingredients

    In a large bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Mix thoroughly.

  3. Step 3: Create Buttermilk and Mix Wet Ingredients

    Combine milk and vinegar in a small bowl. Let it sit to curdle slightly. Whisk in melted butter and egg until smooth.

  4. Step 4: Combine Wet and Dry Mixtures

    Add the milk mixture to the dry flour mixture. Gently fold together.

  5. Step 5: Add Zucchini, Cheese, and Green Onions

    Fold in shredded zucchini, cheddar cheese, and green onions until evenly distributed.

  6. Step 6: Bake and Cool the Bread

    Pour the batter into the prepared pan, bake at 350°F (175°C) for about an hour, or until a toothpick comes out clean. Cool in the pan before transferring to a wire rack.

Notes

  • You can add a pinch of cracked black pepper for extra flavor.
  • This bread is best enjoyed warm or at room temperature.
