    Easy zucchini bread no sugar added.

     
    Homemade zucchini bread is a simple and delicious quick bread recipe that is made with healthy and fresh zucchini.

    I like that this homemade zucchini bread is perfect for breakfast, snacks, in sandwiches, or even just to give away to someone else to enjoy.

    Did you try my recipe for Sugar Free Chocolate Zucchini Bread

    That tasty bread recipe is a double chocolate zucchini bread that is made with both chocolate chips and unsweetened cocoa. Both this sugar free homemade zucchini bread and that chocolate zucchini bread are delicious recipes made with no added sugar.

    To make this recipe you will need to first grate the zucchini. You can find a selection of graters for food here.

    Why should you bake with zucchini?

    Why is zucchini good for baking?

    Well, the obvious reason is that zucchini is a healthy squash that is loaded with vitamin C and other nutrients. You may also have an abundance of the zucchini from your summer garden (as I do ๐Ÿ™‹โ€โ™€๏ธ) that needs to get used in a recipe.

    However, zucchini does have some benefit to baked goods such as this bread.
    Not only does zucchini add some nutrients, flavor, and a bit of texture, it also is a good source for moisture.

    How do you prepare zucchini for baking?


    In this recipe, the zucchini needs to be grated in order to get it to a good size for blending with other ingredients. Once the zucchini is grated into smaller pieces, it can be evenly distributed which will help this bread bake more evenly.

    To prepare the zucchini, you can first peel it or wash the skin well. Remove the ends if you are using a food processor or grating by hand. If you are using a spiralizer then follow the directions provided.

    Tips for making sugar free zucchini bread for diabetics and low sugar diets.

    While some of the water that comes with the grated zucchini is good for moisture, I like to allow for the excess water to drain out. Simply place the grated zucchini on a stack of paper towels or on a clean kitchen towel while preparing the other ingredients for this recipe.

    More helpful tips for you.

    1. Using fresh zucchini is really best when it comes to both flavor and texture. You can leave the skin on for added texture and color if you have cleaned or rinsed it first.
    2. It is a good idea to prep your loaf pan well for this recipe. You can use both parchment paper and nonstick or dust it with a bit of flour.
    3. While my recipe uses a basic loaf pan, you can make this in a mini loaf pan or even a square baking pan if desired. You may need to adjust the baking times for the pan as needed however.

    How to store homemade zucchini bread.

    This bread should be wrapped in plastic or foil or stored in an airtight container. If properly stored, it should keep for about five days at room temperature or frozen for about a month.

    Ingredients needed to make healthy zucchini bread no sugar.

    • Zucchini. Use fresh zucchini for best results. The zucchini should be grated and the excess water should be drained as well.
    • Cinnamon. Ground cinnamon adds to the flavor in this bread.
    • Baking Powder and Baking Soda are both used in this quick bread for leavening.
    • Salt. We are using a small amount of salt for balance.
    • Sugar Alternative. Please us a granular sugar alternative that measures like sugar and that can also be baked with.
    • Oil. For moisture in the bread, use a neutral oil such as vegetable oil.
    • Eggs. Your eggs should be at room temperature for better blending.
    • Vanilla Extract. Added for flavor balance.
    • Chopped Nuts. This is an optional ingredient but, it really does add a lot to this recipe. Chopped walnuts and/or chopped pecans work well in this recipe. You can use additional chopped nuts for the topping as desired.

    Expert Tip ๐Ÿ‘‰ Make this recipe low carbohydrate by using a low carbohydrate all purpose flour. You can make this recipe gluten free by using a gluten free all purpose flour. Almond flour will most likely need an additional egg. Lastly, for best results, use an all purpose flour alternative that measures like all purpose flour.

    Servings: 8.
    Prep Time: 10 minutes.
    Bake Time: 50-55 minutes.

    1. Preheat your oven to 325 and prep a loaf pan well for nonstick. I like to use parchment paper that overhangs the sided of the pan and is lightly dusted with flour or sprayed with nonstick.
    2. Grate your zucchini using the method of your choice. Then place the zucchini of a clean kitchen towel or stack of paper towels to drain the excess water while you work.
    3. In a medium mixing bowl, use a whisk to combine the flour, ground cinnamon, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
    4. Next, in a large mixing bowl, use a clean whisk to combine together the sugar alternative, oil, eggs, and vanilla extract. Once they ingredients have been combined you can use a rubber spatula to fold in the grated zucchini.
    5. Add the dry ingredients from the first mixing bowl to the large mixing bowl with the wet ingredients and mix until just combined. Then fold in the chopped nuts.
    6. Bake this bread in the center of your oven for 50-55 minutes or until the bread begins to turn brown and a toothpick comes out clean.
    7. Lastly, allow the bread to cool in the pan for at ten minutes before transferring to a wire rack to fully cool.

     
    Expert Tip ๐Ÿ‘‰ Carefully unmold this bread from the pan before transferring it to a wire rack to fully cool. To do so, you can slide a knife around the edges of the bread to unstick it from the sides.

    What you will need to make this Sugar Free Homemade Zucchini Bread.

    • All Purpose Flour- 3 cups. Substitutes for all purpose flour: gluten free all purpose flour such as one of these. Also, low carb diet people can use a low carb flour to keep the carbs down in their bread.
    • Baking Soda- 2 teaspoons.
    • Nutmeg- 1 teaspoon.
    • Ground Cinnamon-1 teaspoon.
    • Sugar Alternative- Equivalent to 2 cups of sugar. Recommended, 2 cups of granular sugar alternative that also measures 1:1 with sugar in a recipe, for best results.
    • Vegetable Oil- 1 cup.
    • Eggs- 3 beaten.
    • Vanilla Extract- 2 teaspoons.
    • Zucchini- 2 cups grated.
    • Optional- 1 cup of chopped nuts or raisins or a combination of the two.

    How to make Sugar Free Homemade Zucchini Bread

    • Preheat your oven to 325 and prep a loaf pan(s) for nonstick. I am a fan of parchment paper(think easy lift out).
    • In a medium sized bowl, whisk together your flour, baking soda, nutmeg, and cinnamon. Set this bowl aside.
    • Now in a mixing bowl blend together your sugar alternative and oil. The add the beaten eggs and vanilla extract.
    • For the next step, we will add the flour mixture to the mixing bowl with the other ingredients. Do so by adding half of the flour mixture at a time, gently mixing between additions. Do not over-mix.Then you can fold in the grated zucchini and optional chopped nuts/raisins.
    • Bake your bread in the center of your oven for 45-50 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Allow it to cool for a few minutes before removing from the pan. Baking time can vary depending on how many loaf pans you are using and how thick your bread is.
