A moist and tender banana zucchini bread combining the natural sweetness of ripe bananas with the softness of zucchini for a comforting and flavorful homemade loaf.

Ingredients

  • 2 ripe bananas, mashed
  • 1 cup zucchini, grated and squeezed dry
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil or melted butter
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a loaf pan.
  2. In a bowl, mash bananas until smooth.
  3. Add eggs, granulated sugar, brown sugar, oil or melted butter, and vanilla extract; mix well.
  4. In another bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt.
  5. Gradually add dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined.
  6. Fold in grated zucchini evenly.
  7. Pour batter into prepared loaf pan and smooth the top.
  8. Bake for 50–60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  9. Cool in pan briefly, then transfer to cool completely before slicing.

Notes

  • Squeeze excess moisture from zucchini to prevent soggy bread.
  • Add walnuts, pecans, or chocolate chips for variation.
  • Use very ripe bananas for best sweetness and flavor.
  • Substitute part of the flour with whole wheat for a heartier texture.
  • Store properly to maintain moisture and freshness.
