Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C) and grease and flour a 9x5 inch loaf pan.

  2. Add the shredded zucchini to the wet ingredients and stir until evenly distributed.
Combining Wet and Dry
  1. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix the batter.
Baking
  1. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and bake for 45-55 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
Cooling
  1. Allow the zucchini bread to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

For extra flavor, you can add 1/2 cup of chopped nuts or chocolate chips to the batter with the dry ingredients. Ensure your zucchini is well-drained to avoid a watery bread.
