Savory Zucchini Cheese Bread Food

ZUCCHINI CHEESE BREAD

Steps:

• Mix the zucchini, green onions, eggs, sour cream, and butter well before mixing in the cheese.
• Mix the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt.
• Mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients and pour the batter into a greased 9×5 inch loaf pan.*
• Bake in a preheated 350F/180C oven until a toothpick pushed into the center of the bread comes out clean, about 50-70 minutes.
• Let cool a bit before running a knife around the inside edge of the pan, removing the loaf, slicing and enjoying topped with melted butter.

SAVORY ZUCCHINI BEER BREAD

Steps:

• Toss the zucchini with 1/2 teaspoon of the salt in a colander and let stand for 15 minutes. Gather it up in your hands and squeeze out as much moisture as you can.
• Preheat the oven 375°F. Generously grease an 8 x 4-inch loaf pan.
• Whisk together the flour, baking powder, remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt, the sugar, and black pepper. Add the zucchini, scallions, coarsely shredded cheese, and 1/4 cup of the olive oil, folding to combine, then pour in the beer. Let stand for a few minutes as the dry ingredients absorb the beer, then fold gently until everything is moistened. It'll be a dense and tacky batter. Scrape into the prepared pan.
• Drizzle with the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil and sprinkle with the finely shredded cheese. Transfer to the oven and bake until set in the center and a tester comes out clean, 75 to 80 minutes. Cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then unmold. This bread can be served warm (though it'll be a bit gooey inside) and should be eaten within a day or two, stored loosely covered at room temperature.

SAVORY ZUCCHINI GARLIC ONION DILL BREAD

Steps:

• 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray or butter 3 mini loaf pans (3 1/2 x 6) or 1 standard loaf pan.

• 3. Add wet ingredients (eggs, milk w/vinegar, and melted butter).
• 4. Stir until just blended. Place equally in to prepared pans.
• 5. Bake 3 mini loaves for 20 minutes. Remove from oven and brush with 1/2 of butter garlic powder mixture. Return to oven approximately 5 more minutes or until a toothpick comes out almost clean and they are golden brown. When done, brush with remaining butter mixture.
• 6. (For a standard size loaf, bake approximately 45 minutes, brush with butter and return for an additional 5 minutes.) I have never used a large pan myself, so watch closely.
