A simple, quick, and moist zucchini bread recipe made in one bowl, perfect for busy days and homemade baking with minimal cleanup.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups (240g) all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup (200g) granulated sugar
  • ½ cup (120ml) vegetable oil
  • 2 large eggs, room temperature
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 2 cups shredded zucchini (about 2 medium zucchinis), lightly squeezed
  • ½ cup (60g) chopped walnuts or pecans (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan with butter or non-stick spray, or line it with parchment paper.
  2. Shred two medium zucchinis into a large mixing bowl. Gently squeeze out excess moisture with your hands or a kitchen towel to get about 2 cups of shredded zucchini.
  3. Add ½ cup vegetable oil, 1 cup granulated sugar, 2 large eggs, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract to the zucchini. Stir until combined and slightly smooth.
  4. Sprinkle 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, ½ teaspoon baking powder, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg, and ½ teaspoon salt over the wet mixture. Fold gently until no streaks of flour remain. Do not overmix.
  5. If using, fold in ½ cup chopped walnuts or pecans.
  6. Transfer the batter to the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top lightly.
  7. Bake for 50-60 minutes, checking at 50 minutes by inserting a toothpick in the center. It should come out clean or with a few moist crumbs. Tent with foil if the top browns too quickly.
  8. Cool the bread in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a cooling rack to cool completely.

Notes

Squeeze excess moisture from zucchini to avoid soggy bread. Use room temperature eggs for better texture. Do not overmix to keep bread tender. Check baking powder and soda freshness for proper rise. Let bread cool before slicing to prevent crumbling.
