Zucchini Bread With Lemon Honey Butter Food

LEMON ZUCCHINI BREAD

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease and flour a 8 x 4 inch loaf pan. Set aside.
• In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, salt, baking powder, and baking soda.
• In another bowl, combine sugar and lemon zest and stir well.
• Add eggs, oil, and lemon juice and stir until smooth. Stir in the dry ingredients until combined.
• Fold the zucchini into the batter and pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan.
• Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
• Allow to rest in the pan for 10 minutes before removing the loaf onto a wire cooling rack to cool completely.
• While the bread is cooling, make the glaze by combining the powdered sugar and lemon juice in a small bowl until smooth.
• Drizzle the glaze over the bread. Slice and serve.

HEALTHY ZUCCHINI BREAD

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325°F. Grease a 9" x 5" loaf pan to prevent the bread from sticking. If you'll be toasting the nuts, line a small, rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
• Toast the nuts: Once the oven has finished preheating, pour the chopped nuts onto your prepared baking sheet. Bake until the nuts are fragrant and toasted, about 5 minutes, stirring halfway.
• In a large mixing bowl, combine the coconut oil and honey. Beat them with a whisk until they are combined. Add the eggs and beat well. (If your coconut oil solidifies on contact with cold ingredients, simply let the bowl rest in a warm place for a few minutes, like on top of your stove, or warm it for about 20 seconds in the microwave.)
• Add the milk, baking soda, cinnamon, vanilla, salt and nutmeg, and whisk to blend. Switch to a big spoon and stir in the zucchini (be sure to squeeze excess moisture out of the zucchini first). Add the flour and stir just until combined. Some lumps are ok! Gently fold in the toasted nuts now, if using.
• Pour the batter into your greased loaf pan and sprinkle lightly with additional cinnamon. If you'd like a pretty swirled effect, run the tip of a knife across the batter in a zig-zag pattern.
• Bake for 55 to 60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean and the center of the loaf springs back to the touch. Let the bread cool in the pan on a wire rack. Use a serrated knife to cut individual slices.
• This bread is moist, so it will keep for just 2 to 3 days at room temperature. Store it in the refrigerator for 5 to 7 days, or in the freezer for up to 3 months or so. I like to slice the bread before freezing and defrost individual slices, either by lightly toasting them or defrosting them in the microwave.

HONEY BUTTER ZUCCHINI BREAD

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease two 9x5 inch loaf pans. Stir together the flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt in a bowl until blended. Set aside.
• Whisk eggs, sugar, oil, butter, honey, and vanilla together in a large bowl. Stir in zucchini, walnuts, and coconut. Add the flour mixture and stir until well combined. Divide the batter between the prepared loaf pans.
• Bake until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, about 1 hour. Cool completely. Store loaves overnight in plastic bags for best flavor.

ZUCCHINI BUTTER

Steps:

• Grate the zucchini on the large holes of a box grater into a colander set over a bowl. Squeeze the zucchini to remove the excess liquid.
• Heat the butter and olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the shallot; cook, stirring, until softened, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the zucchini, thyme, 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper; cook, stirring occasionally, until the zucchini is very tender and almost paste-like but not browned, 35 to 40 minutes, mashing it with a fork in the last 5 minutes. If the zucchini starts sticking, stir in a splash of water; reduce the heat as needed to prevent browning.
• Remove the pan from the heat, stir in the lemon zest and season with salt. Let cool, then discard the thyme and transfer to a small jar. Store in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.

LEMON ZUCCHINI BREAD

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Grease an 8x4 inch loaf pan.
• In a bowl, beat together the zucchini, sugar, egg, and oil. In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, salt, baking soda, and baking powder; stir in the cinnamon and lemon zest. Stir the flour mixture into the zucchini mixture just until blended. Pour the batter into the prepared pan.
• Bake 45 minutes in the preheated oven, until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean. Remove from heat, and cool about 10 minutes before turning out onto a wire rack to cool completely.

HONEY-ZUCCHINI BREAD

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190C).
• Butter two 8 x 4 inch loaf pans.
• Beat eggs well.
• Add oil, then honey (put honey in measuring cup after oil because the oiled cup will allow the honey to drip out more easily) and vanilla.
• Stir in zucchini.
• Mix dry ingredients together.
• Stir into zucchini along with nuts.
• Pour into the prepared loaf pans.
• Bake for 45-55 minutes, or until tested done.
