Equipment
- oven
- 9 x 5 bread pan
- large bowl
- small bowl
Ingredients
Vegetables
- 1.5 cups zucchini, grated
Dry Ingredients
- 2 cups all purpose white flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
Wet Ingredients
- 1 cup milk I used 2% but whole or non fat would be fine
- 1 tablespoon vinegar white or apple cider
- 1 egg
- 3 tablespoons butter, melted
Instructions
Baking Steps
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees and spray a 9 x 5 bread pan with non stick spray.
- Wrap grated zucchini in a paper towel and squeeze until some of the liquid releases. You don't need to completely dry it out. Just a tablespoon of liquid or so.
- In a large bowl, combine flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt.
- In a small bowl, combine milk and vinegar. The milk will curdle a bit. (you just made homemade buttermilk!) Mix in melted butter and egg.
- Add milk mixture to dry mixture being careful not to over mix. (over mixing will make for a low rising bread).
- Add grated zucchini, cheese and onions. Mixing lightly until just combined.
