Ingredients
Wet ingredients:
- 1 3/4 cups shredded zucchini (about 11 – 12 oz.)
- 2 eggs
- 1/3 cup avocado oil (or other neutral tasting, heart healthy oil)
- 1/3 cup honey
- 1/3 cup plain Greek yogurt
Dry ingredients:

- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon ginger
- 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
- Pinch of cloves
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon stevia powder or 2 Tablespoons more honey
Mix-ins: 1/2 cup craisins (or raisins), 1/2 cup toasted walnuts, 2 oz. white or dark chocolate chips (or chopped chocolate)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 F. Spray a 9×5 inch loaf pan with cooking spray or line with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, stir together the wet ingredients until fully blended, then add the dry ingredients and stir just until mixed well. Fold in the mix-ins.
- Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for about 60 minutes or until a long wooden pick (or knife) inserted in the center comes out clean. Let cool at least 10 minutes before removing from the pan and slicing.
