Instructions

Step 1: Prep & Preheat

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.

Step 2: Mix the Dry Ingredients

In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon.

Step 3: Combine the Wet Ingredients

In a large bowl, whisk together the sugars, oil, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth.

Step 4: Add the Zucchini

Stir in the grated zucchini—it adds moisture without needing extra liquid.

Step 5: Bring It All Together

Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, stirring just until combined. If using mix-ins, fold them in now.

Step 6: Bake to Perfection

Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

Step 7: Cool & Enjoy

Let the bread cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack. Slice, serve, and enjoy!
