Zucchini Bread

Mine turned out bready.

Reduced sugar and subbed squash puree instead of applesauce.

Maybe should have kept zucchini juice.

Nice breakfast bread.

Th taste us delicious, but it fidn’t cook all the way through. I cooked longer and it was still a bit moist/gooey inside. Any tips?

Hey Lori, we're glad you enjoyed the taste! If the zucchini bread recipe didn’t cook through, you could try reducing the oven temperature slightly and increasing the baking time. Additionally, be sure to thoroughly drain the zucchini, as excess moisture can affect the texture. We hope this helps for now ✨

Thank you! I will try that. 😊

The grate beginning of autumm.

I plan to make it but what size of zucchini should be used?

PUL Team - Sept. 4, 2024, 6:59 p.m.

Hey Anita, one medium zucchini for us is around 190-200 grams. It should yield approximately 1.5 cups of grated zucchini, after squeezing it becomes ¾ cup 🤗

Excellent 👌 Taste amazing, simple ingredients and easy to make

Made this a couple of times! Super delicious! Made it gluten free as well.

I made this recipe as muffins for my little ones, and they came out beautifully! The recipe made 12 muffins, and I baked them at 350* for 20-25 min.
As always, another wonderful recipe!
Delicious!

Ooo thanks for the insight, Debbie! Zucchini bread muffins sound delicious 🤤

Very tasty and moist. I replaced apple sauce with banana. I don’t know if it was because of that but the bread was definitely a little too sweet.

I made a double batch of this today. The best zucchini bread ever! I used pear sauce instead of applesauce, because that's what I had in the fridge, but otherwise I followed the recipe exactly how it was written. No need to try any variations when it's so yummy just the way it is. My go-to zucchini bread recipe from now on. Thank you so much! 😋

So happy to hear that the zucchini bread was enjoyed, Terhi, thanks for sharing your experience with it 🤗✨

I don't know what went wrong.. Arguably I used on third less sugar than called for but the bread was in the oven for over 1,5 hours and the toothpick still didn't come out clean. It collapsed and and I took I out.
It was kind of gummy.. :( it tasted amazing non the less.
I did everything else like it was called for in the recipe.
What could have been the problem? :(

Hey Niki, it sounds like a couple of things might have been at play here. First, reducing the sugar can impact the bread's structure and moisture balance. And with the baking time extended so much, it seems there could have been an issue with the wet to dry ingredient ratio, especially if the measurements weren't precise (it also sounds like what could be contributing to the gummy texture you mentioned). Baking is such a science, and even small changes can have big effects. If you have a kitchen scale, we recommend using it to weigh your ingredients for more accuracy. This might help achieve a better texture next time. I hope this helps for now, and I'm glad it still tasted amazing though! 🤗

Hi thanks for responding!
I read the comments and no one seemed to have issues with reducing the sugar, that's why I tried it. :(
I always use a scale, I was wondering if it was the size of the zucchini. It didn't say how much it should weigh.. It only said one zucchini.. Maybe you can add the measurements for that as well!
Thanks a lot for replying!

I made this bread twice, it's sooo good! By the way, in step 4 of the cook-along feature, you have mistakenly placed a 70-minute timer. You might want to take that down, it's confusing 😉

Hey Martunia, so glad the zucchini bread is being enjoyed and thanks for catching the timer issue! We've updated it on out backend but it might take a day or two to update on the front end 😊

Made this last week because I had too many zucchinis, and this was DELICIOUS 😍😋

Woohoo! Thanks, Dora 😊

This was a delicious treat! I swapped out the apple sauce for pumpkin purée and it turned out perfectly.

Loved it!! I made it with an apple and pumpkin spice mix, and the flavor is fresh and soul-hugging. What a great way to use up any leftover zucchini.

Apple and pumpkin spice mix sounds incredible, Estefanía! Soul-hugging is such a lovely way to describe recipes 🥰 🙌

Turned out lovely! So yummy especially served warm with vegan butter

Definitely making this again. Delish!

Sooo good! It tasted like Christmas 😊

These were so good the first time that I had to make them again, but this time I made a Lemon Poppy Seed muffin version. I doubled the recipe, zested and juices three lemons, used some of the lemon juice to gel the flaxseed instead of water and the rest I used as part of the milk volume. I added 2Tbsp poppy seeds and for total sugar, I used 1 cup sugar (+ 1Tbsp molasses to make brown sugar). I also left out the cinnamon. Baked muffins (makes ~19) for 30-35 min at 350F. They were just the right about of lemony and sweet!

Woop woop! So happy to hear, Tischan, and thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience with the recipe 😃

It is supernice, but actually it is sweet enough even without the sugar! Might also work with a mashed banana instead of sugar if you like it a bit sweeter!

Delicious. Used 50% of the sugar, was still a little to much for our taste.

I loved making this delicious bread. I’d never tried using flaxseed to replace the egg and it worked!

Definitely will be making this recipe again through zucchini season. ♥️

This was super delicious, even preschooler-approved! My only change was that I left out 1/4 cup white sugar and it was still plenty sweet enough for my family. I made this into muffins, which only needed to bake for about 25-30min.

Woop woop! Thanks a bunch for sharing your experience with it, Tischan 😃
