Ingredients

• 2 cups All-purpose flour
• 2 teaspoons Baking powder
• 1 teaspoon Baking soda
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon (optional, for sweetness)
• 1 cup Grated zucchini (squeezed to remove excess moisture)
• 1 cup Grated carrot
• 2 large Eggs
• 0.75 cups Milk
• 0.25 cups Olive oil (or vegetable oil)
• 2 tablespoons Honey (or maple syrup for a vegan option)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease or line a standard loaf pan with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and ground cinnamon (if using).

Step 3

In a separate medium bowl, whisk the eggs until frothy, then add the milk, olive oil, and honey. Mix until well combined.

Step 4

Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined. Do not overmix.

Step 5

Gently fold in the grated zucchini and grated carrot, ensuring they're evenly distributed throughout the batter.

Step 6

Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Step 8

Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a cooling rack.

Step 9

Slice and serve warm or at room temperature. This bread pairs well with butter, cream cheese, or on its own!
