Zucchini Apple Bread


  • Author: Shirley
  • Total Time: 90 minutes

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 medium Granny Smith apples, peeled, cored, and diced
  • ¼ cup (50 g) light brown sugar, packed
  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 2 cups (250 g) all-purpose flour
  • 2 large eggs, room temperature
  • 1 cup (220 g) light brown sugar, packed
  • ½ cup (100 g) granulated sugar
  • ¾ cup (164 g) vegetable oil
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • ¾ teaspoon baking powder
  • ¾ teaspoon baking soda
  • 2 cups grated zucchini, gently pressed to remove excess moisture
  • ¾ cup (94 g) all-purpose flour
  • ⅓ cup (42 g) confectioners’ sugar
  • ½ cup (1 stick / 113 g) unsalted butter, cold, cubed

Instructions

  • Apple Mixture: In a medium bowl, combine the apples, melted butter, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Stir to mix well. Set aside.
  • Preheat the Oven: Set the oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly spray a 9×5-inch loaf pan with nonstick cooking spray. Set aside.
  • Prepare the Batter: In a large bowl, combine the flour, eggs, sugars, oil, vanilla, salt, baking powder, and baking soda. This mixture will be quite thick.
  • Combine Ingredients: Add the apple mixture and the grated zucchini to the batter. Stir until combined.
  • Pour the Batter: Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan. Set aside while you prepare the crumble topping.
  • Crumble Topping: In a small bowl, whisk together the flour and confectioners’ sugar. Add the cubed butter to the flour mixture. Using your hands or a fork, mix the butter into the flour until the butter pieces resemble pea-sized bits or smaller
  • Finish and Bake: Sprinkle the crumble mixture evenly over the batter in the loaf pan. Bake for 65-75 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out mostly clean. If the bread is browning too much on the outside before it is fully baked, cover the top with a foil tent for the last 10-15 minutes.
  • Cool and Serve: Allow the bread to cool slightly before slicing and serving
