- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 cups grated zucchini (about 1 medium zucchini)
- 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
- In another bowl, combine the granulated sugar, brown sugar, vegetable oil, eggs, and vanilla extract. Mix until well combined.
- Add the grated zucchini to the wet ingredients and stir until incorporated.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Gently fold in the blueberries, being careful not to crush them.
- Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top.
- Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Allow the bread to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- For a sweeter twist, add 1/2 cup of chopped walnuts or pecans to the batter.
- To make this recipe healthier, substitute half of the all-purpose flour with whole wheat flour and reduce the sugar by 1/4 cup.
