Notes

  • Looking for an even healthier zucchini bread recipe? Try swapping in 1/2 whole wheat flour and 1/2 all purpose flour. 
  • Grate zucchini by hand with a box grater or even easier with a food processor with a grating attachment. 
  • To get honey to flow easily from a liquid measuring cup, spray it with nonstick cooking spray first. 
  • Chocolate chips could me omitted if desired. 
  • Try using unsweetened applesauce in this zucchini bread with applesauce recipe.  This will keep the sugar content lower. 
  • This healthy zucchini bread recipe makes one loaf of bread, and we use a 9-inch by 5-inch loaf pan.
  • Lacking a bread pan? Try baking in an 8 x 8 inch baking dish instead.  The cooking time could possibly be a 5 - 10 minutes shorter.
