Ingredients
- 1 pound zucchini
- 1 1/4 cups sugar divided
- 6 tablespoons unsalted butter melted and cooled
- 2 large eggs slightly beaten
- 1/4 cup plain greek yogurt
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon allspice
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Wash the zucchini and cut the ends off.
- Shred the zucchini using a food processor or grater. If using a large zucchini, cut it in half lengthwise and scoop the seeds out before grating.
- Mix 2 tablespoons of the sugar into the grated zucchini. Place a clean kitchen towel in a colander, then place the zucchini on top. Place in the sink or over a bowl to drain for 30 minutes. Once the 30 minutes is up, squeeze the remaining liquid out of the zucchini through the towel.
- Preheat the oven to 350ºF while the zucchini is draining. Line a 9x5-inch loaf pan with parchment paper or grease generously.
- Whisk the remaining sugar, melted butter, eggs, yogurt and lemon juice together in a large bowl.
- Add the flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, allspice and salt and mix until it is about 75% mixed in. Add the drained zucchini and fold together until all of the dry ingredients are wet. Be careful to not overmix.
- Transfer the batter to the prepared pan. Bake until the bread is golden brown and a skewer inserted in the middle comes out clean, about 40-50 minutes. If the top starts getting too brown, cover it lightly with foil.
- Let the loaf cool for 10 minutes in the pan before turning out onto a wire rack to cool completely, about 1 hour.
