Instructions
- Preheat Oven
-
- Set Temperature: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.
-
- Prepare the Zucchini
-
- Shred Zucchini: Using a box grater or food processor, shred the zucchini. If it’s very watery, place it in a clean kitchen towel and squeeze out excess moisture.
-
- Mix Wet Ingredients
-
- Combine Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, honey (or maple syrup), eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth.
-
- Add Dry Ingredients
-
- Mix Together: In another bowl, combine the whole wheat flour, rolled oats, baking powder, baking soda, ground cinnamon, and salt. Stir until well mixed.
-
- Combine Wet and Dry Mixtures
-
- Fold Together: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix. Fold in the shredded zucchini and any optional add-ins like nuts or chocolate chips.
-
- Bake
-
- Pour into Pan: Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and spread it evenly.
-
- Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 45-55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
-
- Cool and Serve
-
- Cool: Allow the bread to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.

Notes
Pro Tip: For added flavor, sprinkle some cinnamon or oats on top of the batter before baking!
