Ingredients
- 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon, divided
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/2 teaspoon ground allspice
- 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce
- 1/3 cup coconut oil, melted and slightly cooled (can use vegetable oil)
- 3/4 cup packed light brown sugar
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs, at room temperature
- 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 cups shredded zucchini*
- 1 cup peeled & chopped apples, I use Granny smith or Honeycrisp
- 2 tablespoons turbinado sugar, divided
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan and line with parchment paper. Set aside.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon, baking soda, salt, allspice, nutmeg, and ginger. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, combine the applesauce, oil, brown sugar, granulated sugar, eggs, and vanilla. Whisk until smooth. Stir in the zucchini.
- Add the dry ingredients and stir until just combined.
- In a small bowl, combine the diced apples with the remaining 1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon and 1 tablespoon turbinado sugar. Stir until well combined. Gently fold in the apple mixture into the batter, being careful to not over mix.
- Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan. Sprinkle with the remaining 1 tablespoon of turbinado sugar.
- Place the pan on the middle rack in the oven and bake for 50-60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the bread comes out clean. Check early to be safe, mine always takes 55 minutes, but every oven is different.
- Remove the pan from the oven and set on a wire cooling rack. Let the bread cool in the pan for 15 minutes. Run a knife around the edges of the bread and carefully remove from the pan. Let the bread cool completely on the wire cooling rack. Cut into slices and serve.
Notes
- I don’t peel the zucchini before grating. If your zucchini is super watery, you can squeeze out a little of the excess liquid, but you want to leave most of the moisture in the zucchini so the bread is nice and moist.
