Ingredients
To make the flax eggs:
- 2 tablespoons ground flax seeds
- 5 tablespoons water at room temperature
To make the batter:
- 1/3 cup melted coconut oil melted and cooled
- ½ cup maple syrup
- ½ cup almond milk
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
- ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1½ cups 1 small zucchini – 7 ounces grated zucchini, juices squeezed
- 1¾ cups 9.625 oz whole wheat flour
- ¾ cup unsalted raw walnuts roughly chopped
Instructions
- Pre-heat the oven to 325 F. Degrees. Spray a loaf pan (either 9X5 or 8 1/2 X 4 ½) with cooking spray and line it with parchment paper. Set it aside.
- To make the flax eggs, whisk together the ground flax seeds with water. Let it sit on the counter and thicken for 5-7 minutes.
- Whisk together the flax eggs, coconut oil, maple syrup, almond milk in a bowl. Stir in the baking soda, ground cinnamon, vanilla extract, salt, and nutmeg.
- Switch to a wooden spoon and stir in the zucchini. Add in the flour and stir just until combined.
- Gently fold in the walnuts.
- Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan. Bake for 40-45 minutes* or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean. Transfer to a wire rack and let it cool for 20 minutes. Slice and serve.
- This bread will keep fresh 2 days in room temperature as long as it is kept in an airtight container. You can also slice it and store it in the fridge up to 5 days.
Notes
- *About the baking time: The original recipe suggests to bake the loaf for 55-60 minutes. However, I found that 40 minutes was more than enough for this bread. Therefore, I highly recommend keeping a close eye on it after the 40-minute mark.
