Description

This Savory and Cheesey Zucchini Bread is a delightful twist on traditional bread, combining the freshness of zucchini with the rich flavors of Parmesan and cheddar cheese for a moist and flavorful treat.

Ingredients

Scale

2 medium zucchinis
grated
1 teaspoon salt
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
3 large eggs
1/3 cup vegetable oil
1/2 cup whole milk
2 cloves garlic
minced
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a loaf pan.
In a large bowl, combine the grated zucchini and salt, and let it sit for 10 minutes to draw out moisture.
In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, black pepper, oregano, and thyme.
In a separate mixing bowl, beat the eggs and then add the vegetable oil and milk.
Mix the dry ingredients into the egg mixture until just combined. Fold in the zucchini, garlic, Parmesan cheese, cheddar cheese, and parsley.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and spread it evenly.
Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Allow to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

For an extra cheesy flavor, feel free to add more cheese or incorporate different types like feta or mozzarella. This bread pairs wonderfully with soups and salads.
