Snickerdoodle Zucchini Bread

Snickerdoodle Zucchini Bread – A Cozy, Cinnamon-Swirled Summer Treat


Ingredients

Scale

1. Prepare your oven and pan:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.

2. Mix the dry ingredients:
In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg.

3. Combine the wet ingredients:
In a separate bowl, whisk together oil, sugars, eggs, and vanilla until smooth and glossy.

4. Add zucchini:
Fold the grated zucchini into the wet mixture until well combined.

5. Mix batter:
Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet, mixing gently until just combined. Do not overmix—this keeps your bread soft and fluffy.

6. Make the cinnamon swirl:
Pour half the batter into the prepared pan. In a small bowl, mix the topping ingredients. Sprinkle half over the batter layer. Add the remaining batter on top and finish with the rest of the cinnamon sugar.

7. Bake:
Bake for 50–60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Tent with foil halfway through if the top browns too quickly.

8. Cool:
Allow the bread to cool in the pan for 1015 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.


Instructions

Drain the zucchini properly:
After grating, use a clean dish towel or cheesecloth to wring out excess moisture. This prevents soggy bread.

Add-ins for texture:
Fold in 1/2 cup of chopped walnuts, pecans, or mini white chocolate chips for extra richness.

Make it dairy-free:
This bread is naturally dairy-free when using vegetable or coconut oil. Use a plant-based egg substitute if needed.

Mini loaves or muffins:
Bake in mini pans or muffin tins (adjust time to 25–30 minutes) for grab-and-go versions.

 

Add a glaze:
Drizzle with a simple vanilla or cream cheese glaze for a bakery-style finish.
