Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup grated and drained zucchini
  • 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.
  3. In another bowl, beat the eggs, sugars, oil, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  4. Add the grated zucchini to the wet mixture and stir to combine.
  5. Gradually mix the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined.
  6. Gently fold in the blueberries, being careful not to overmix.
  7. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top.
  8. Bake for 55-65 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  9. Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • Add chopped walnuts or pecans for a crunchy texture.
  • Use whole wheat flour for a healthier twist.
  • Substitute coconut oil for vegetable oil for added flavor.
  • Try lemon zest for a citrusy note that complements the blueberries.
