Ingredients
  

Dry Ingredients
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
Wet Ingredients
  • 2 large eggs
  • ½ cup vegetable oil
  • 1 cup sugar (or honey for a healthier option)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Main Ingredients
  • 2 cups grated zucchini (about two medium zucchinis) Make sure to remove excess moisture.
  • 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or your favorite) Feel free to experiment with different cheeses.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Grate your zucchini and squeeze out the excess moisture using a clean kitchen towel.
Mix Dry Ingredients
  1. In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined.
Combine Wet Ingredients
  1. In a large bowl, beat the eggs, then stir in the oil, sugar, and vanilla extract until well blended.
Incorporate Zucchini and Cheese
  1. Add the grated zucchini and shredded cheese into the wet ingredients; stir until fully combined.
Combine Mixtures
  1. Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, taking care not to overmix.
Bake
  1. Pour the batter into a greased loaf pan and smooth the top. Bake for about 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Cool and Serve
  1. Allow it to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack. Slice and enjoy!

Notes
