CLASSIC ZUCCHINI BREAD



Classic Zucchini Bread image

A quintessential quick bread, zucchini bread blurs the line between breakfast and cake, making it acceptable for both. This version is on the sweeter side, the vegetal flavors mellowed by brown sugar, cinnamon and a bit of browned butter. While not always necessary, squeezing excess water from the zucchini will prevent the batter from being too wet while keeping the end result moist. Since this recipe makes two loaves (if you're going to grate all that zucchini, might as well make it count), know that one will freeze excellently for at least a month. The recipe can also be halved with great success.

Categories     quick breads

Time 1h15m

Yield 2 loaves

Number Of Ingredients 13

½ cup/113 grams unsalted butter, plus more for greasing the pan
3 ½ cups/447 grams all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons cinnamon
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 ¼ teaspoons baking powder
1 ¼ teaspoons baking soda
½ teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg (or ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg)
4 large eggs
¾ cup/165 grams light brown sugar
¾ cup/151 grams sugar
¾ cup/180 milliliters canola oil
1 ½ pounds zucchini, unpeeled and grated on a box grater (about 3 medium zucchini)
4 tablespoons demerara or turbinado sugar (optional)

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350 degrees. Lightly grease 2 8-x4-inch loaf pans with softened butter and line with parchment paper.
  • Melt butter in a small pot over medium heat. Cook, swirling occasionally, until the butter starts to brown and smell like hazelnuts, 5 to 7 minutes. Use a whisk to scrape up any browned bits on the bottom of the pot; set aside.
  • Whisk together flour, cinnamon, salt, baking powder, baking soda and nutmeg in a large bowl.
  • Whisk together eggs, light brown sugar, sugar and canola oil in a medium bowl until no lumps remain and eggs are well blended.
  • Using your hands, squeeze out as much water as possible from the zucchini. Add zucchini and browned butter to the egg mixture, whisking to blend.
  • Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and add the wet ingredients. Use a spatula to slowly incorporate until no dry spots remain.
  • Divide batter among prepared pans, smoothing the top. Sprinkle both with demerara sugar, if using, and place in oven. Bake, rotating once, until bread is golden brown on top, pulls away from the sides and springs back lightly when pressed at the top, 50 to 60 minutes.
  • Let cool completely on a wire rack before removing from the loaf pan.

Provided by Lane Harris

Categories     Breads

Time 1h10m

Yield 2 loaves, 16 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 eggs
1 cup oil
2 1/2 cups sugar
2 -3 cups zucchini (peeled & grated)
3 teaspoons vanilla
3 cups flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
3 teaspoons cinnamon
1/2 cup chopped nuts

Steps:

  • Beat eggs.
  • Add oil, sugar, zucchini, and vanilla.
  • Mix lightly but well.
  • Add other ingredients.
  • Beat well.
  • Bake in greased loaf pans at 325 for 1 hour.
  • Yields 2 loaves.
  • Freezes well.

Tips:

  • Choosing the Right Zucchini: Select firm and young zucchini with a deep green color and no blemishes. Avoid zucchini that are too large, as they tend to have a higher moisture content and can make the bread soggy.
  • Grating the Zucchini: Use the large holes of a box grater to grate the zucchini. This will help release more moisture and ensure the bread has a tender crumb.
  • Measuring the Flour: Use the spoon and level method to measure the flour. This means spooning the flour into the measuring cup and then leveling it off with a knife or straight edge. This will prevent you from adding too much flour, which can make the bread dry and dense.
  • Mixing the Batter: Be careful not to overmix the batter. Overmixing can develop the gluten in the flour, which can make the bread tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Baking the Bread: Bake the bread in a preheated oven. This will help the bread rise evenly and prevent it from sinking in the center.
  • Cooling the Bread: Let the bread cool completely before slicing and serving. This will help the bread set and prevent it from crumbling.

Conclusion:

Zucchini nut bread is a delicious and versatile bread that is perfect for breakfast, lunch, or a snack. It is easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With its moist and tender crumb, nutty flavor, and sweet glaze, zucchini nut bread is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
