Zucchini is a staple at home. I enjoy gardening, and I have my supply of veggies whenever I need them. I have plenty of zucchini supplies, and I give some away. Zucchini is a big part of our menu. I have tons of zucchini recipes, and I cannot cherry-pick. I love them all! Make sure to give this cheddar zucchini bread a try very soon, and watch out for my other zucchini recipes!
INGREDIENTS
1 stick (8 tbsp) butter, melted
¾ c. shredded zucchini (about one medium-large zucchini)
2 large eggs
4 tsp baking powder
3 c. all-purpose flour
1 c. milk
1 tsp baking soda
1 c. shredded cheddar cheese plus ¼ cup for sprinkling on top if desired
2 tsp minced garlic (about 4 cloves)
1 tsp salt
HOW TO MAKE CHEDDAR ZUCCHINI BREAD
Step 1: Prepare the oven. Preheat it to 350 degrees F. Using a nonstick spray, grease a 9 x 5-inch loaf pan.
Step 2: Place the flour, baking powder, salt, and baking soda in a large bowl. Mix well until combined.
Step 3: To the dry mixture, add the zucchini, garlic, 1 cup cheese, eggs, milk, and butter. Stir until the mixture is entirely moistened.
Step 4: Into the prepared pan, pour the dough. Using a spatula or the back of a spoon, smooth it out and top with extra cheese if desired.
Step 5: Place in the preheated oven and bake for about 50 minutes. The bread is done when a toothpick inserted in the centre comes out clean.
NOTES:
In this recipe, blotting or removing the moisture from the zucchini is not needed.
For more flavour, you can brush the top with garlic butter.
