Banana Zucchini Walnut Bread
Two favorite quick bread recipes combine into this moist and flavorful banana zucchini walnut bread!
Ingredients
- 3 ½ cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup packed light or dark brown sugar
- 1 ½ teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 2 cup shredded zucchini (1-2 zucchini, depending on size)
- 1 cup mashed banana (2-3 bananas, depending on size)
- ¾ cup vegetable or canola oil
- 3 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ½ cup chopped walnuts or pecans
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 325°F. Line two 9x5-inch loaf pans with a strip of parchment paper and grease with nonstick baking spray.
- In a large bowl, combine flour, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon and salt.
- In another bowl, whisk together the zucchini, banana, oil, eggs, and vanilla extract. Add to the dry ingredients and mix just until no streaks of flour remain. Stir in walnuts. Do not overmix.
- Divide batter between the two prepared loaf pans. Bake for 40-50 minutes, or until bread is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean with a few crumbs.
- Let loaves cool in the pan for 5-10 minutes, then transfer to a cooling rack to cool completely.
- Store loaves at room temperature for several days. Or double wrap in plastic wrap and freeze for up to 2 months or more.
