Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup gluten-free 1:1 baking flour Provides the main structure
  • ¼ cup almond flour Adds a tender crumb
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder For lift
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda For lift
  • ½ teaspoon salt Balances the sweetness
  • 1 ½ teaspoons cinnamon For warm spice
  • ¼ teaspoon nutmeg For aromatic depth
  • ¼ cup brown sugar Adds moisture and flavor
  • ½ cup white sugar For sweetness
  • 2 large eggs Room temperature
  • cup vegetable oil Or oil of choice
  • ¼ cup almond milk Room temperature
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice Activates the baking soda
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract For flavor depth
  • 1 cup finely grated zucchini Squeezed of excess water
  • ½ cup chopped walnuts Or chocolate chips

Equipment

  • 1 3 mini loaf pans Or one 9x5 loaf pan
  • 1 Medium Bowl For mixing dry ingredients
  • 1 Hand mixer For combining the batter
  • 1 box grater For shredding the vegetables

Method
 

  1. Combine the flours, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and warm spices in a medium bowl to distribute them evenly.
    A metal whisk stirs pale gluten-free flour and brown spices inside a bowl.
  2. Beat the sugars, eggs, oil, milk, lemon juice, and vanilla with a hand mixer until a smooth, uniform liquid forms.
  3. Gently fold the squeezed grated vegetables and your chosen mix-ins into the combined batter to retain the moisture.
    A spatula folds bright green shredded zucchini into a thick beige batter.
  4. Pour the mixture into greased pans and bake at 350°F for 30-35 minutes to set the crumb structure.
