The BEST Healthy Zucchini Bread

Zucchini is one of those summer vegetables that grow crazy here in Minnesota. We love making air fryer zucchini fries for a crunchy snack or zucchini oatmeal cookies for a sweet treat. Everyone should have a solid zucchini bread recipe in their back pocket and that’s just the truth. We’re here to give you one in hopes that you make this recipe year after year. Our recipe is made with basic ingredients and has a hint of warmth from a little maple syrup. It’s also made with applesauce to make it extra moist!

Zucchini Bread Ingredients

This zucchini bread recipe is about as basic as it gets. No fancy ingredients, just things you probably already have in your kitchen.

Flour Zucchini Brown sugar Butter Maple syrup Applesauce Eggs Almond milk

Variations

Add peanut butter: peanut butter makes the world go round and that’s a fact. Try adding 1/3 cup to your batter! Use mashed banana: swap the applesauce out for mashed banana. It will change the flavor slightly but works in the same way. Use a different squash: got summer squash in the garden instead? Try that instead of zucchini! Add chocolate chips: you really can’t go wrong by adding a handful of chocolate chips!

Storage

Make sure to let the zucchini bread cool completely before storing it in an airtight container in a cool, dark place. If you cover it when it’s warm, the condensation will speed up the molding process!
