Spiced Zucchini Bread with Greek Yogurt

Thanks for Sharing!

I’ve got a delicious Spiced Zucchini Bread made with Greek Yogurt recipe to share with you! One of the guys my husband plays softball with handed me a bag of zucchini, so I thought I’d play around with some recipes. My mom let us create our own recipes all the time when I was a kid during the summer. It gave me great freedom in my cooking/baking as an adult to try all the crazy ideas that pop into my head. So I thought I’d try making a spicier version and use Greek yogurt. Friends… this is a MUST try recipe… so good!!!

There’s something truly comforting about freshly baked bread, especially when it’s infused with warm spices and wholesome ingredients. If you’re looking to elevate your baking game with a delightful twist, this spiced zucchini bread recipe is just what you need. It’s perfect for using up those abundant summer zucchinis and will fill your home with a delightful aroma as it bakes.

Making Spiced Zucchini Bread

Prepare the Zucchini:

• Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9×5-inch loaf pan.
• Grate the zucchini using a box grater. Place the grated zucchini in a clean kitchen towel and squeeze out excess moisture.

Prepare Wet Ingredients:

• In another medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, oil, granulated sugar, and Greek yogurt until well combined. Set aside.

Mix Dry Ingredients:

• In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves.

Combine and Fold:

• Add the grated zucchini to the wet ingredients and mix well.
• Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, folding gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.

Bake:

• Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and spread it evenly.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
• Let the bread cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
