Ingredients

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoons baking soda
• 1 teaspoons salt
• 0.5 teaspoons ground black pepper
• 0.25 teaspoons ground cinnamon (optional)
• 2 large eggs
• 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
• 0.5 cups olive oil
• 1.5 cups shredded carrots
• 1.5 cups shredded zucchini
• 1 cups shredded cheddar cheese
• 0.25 cups chopped fresh parsley (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.

Step 2

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

Step 3

In a separate bowl, beat the eggs. Add the Greek yogurt and olive oil, whisking until well combined.

Step 4

Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.

Step 5

Fold in the shredded carrots, shredded zucchini, shredded cheddar cheese, and chopped parsley (if using) until evenly distributed throughout the batter.

Step 6

Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and spread it out evenly with a spatula.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 50-55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the bread comes out clean.

Step 8

Remove the bread from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 9

Slice and serve warm or at room temperature. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days, or refrigerate for longer freshness.
