My Easy Banana Zucchini Bread

Homemade Banana Zucchini Bread

This is the BEST banana zucchini bread. It’s incredibly moist, perfectly sweet, and super easy to make! It’s the perfect way to use up ripe bananas and zucchini.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup mashed ripe bananas (about 2-3 bananas)
  • 1 cup grated zucchini, excess moisture squeezed out

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9×5 inch loaf pan.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.
  3. In a separate bowl, combine sugar, oil, eggs, and vanilla extract. Beat until well combined.
  4. Add the mashed bananas and zucchini to the wet ingredients and mix until just combined.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  6. Pour batter into the prepared loaf pan and bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  7. Let cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

For extra flavor, add 1/2 cup of chopped walnuts or chocolate chips to the batter. Be sure to squeeze out excess moisture from the zucchini before adding it to the batter to prevent the bread from becoming soggy.
