Description

This savory Zucchini Cheese Bread is a simple quick bread packed with shredded zucchini, cheddar cheese, and a hint of green onions. Perfect as a side or snack, it’s best served warm with melting butter.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 cups zucchini, shredded (do not squeeze)
  • 1/4 cup green onion, sliced (optional)
  • 2 large eggs
  • 3/4 cup sour cream
  • 1/4 cup butter, melted and cooled
  • 1 1/2 cups cheddar cheese, shredded
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

Instructions

  • Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C). Grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan.
  • Mix Wet Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the shredded zucchini, green onions (if using), eggs, sour cream, and melted butter. Mix well, then stir in the shredded cheddar cheese.
  • Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  • Make the Batter: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. If the batter is too thick to pour, add 1-2 tablespoons of milk or water.
  • Bake the Bread: Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan. Bake in the preheated oven for 50-70 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Cool and Serve: Let the bread cool in the pan for a few minutes, then run a knife around the edges and remove the loaf from the pan. Slice and serve warm, topped with butter if desired.

Notes

Zucchini Tip: Do not squeeze the liquid out of the zucchini; it adds moisture to the bread.
