Strawberry Zucchini Bread

The thing I like is you get the cinnamon-goodness of regular zucchini bread but then you add these juicy bursts of summer from big chunks of strawberry!

What is in strawberry zucchini bread?

Well – of course it has strawberries and zucchini! I feel like it’s a pretty typical quickbread recipe. It starts with creaming egg & sugar then you add oil, vanilla, flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon and salt. Lastly you’ll fold in the grated zucchini. For the strawberries – I fold in a few strawberries but then I leave a few to pop on the top before I bake them at the end.

Will zucchini bread rise?

Yes! It doesn’t rise like a yeast bread – but I filled the loaf pan about 2/3 full and it rose out of the pan.

Be sure to LINE YOUR PAN with parchment paper – this is 100% essential if you want to remove the bread in one piece.

How to make zucchini bread moist?

I think the key for moist zucchini bread is 2 eggs, vegetable oil and plenty of zucchini. I use a full medium-size zucchini and grate the entire veg!

When making zucchini bread, should I peel the zucchini?

Yes! 100% I don’t want to eat the peel!

Can zucchini bread be frozen?

Yes! Wrap in foil and then in a freezer ziploc bag and your bread will be fine!

Can strawberry zucchini bread be left out?

Nope! I learned this the hard way! The strawberries will mold – so definitely refrigerate this bread. Just heat it in the microwave and heat your slices before you eat them – so good!

    I made this and followed the directions but can you confirm that only 1 cup of flour is correct? Mine had batter similar to a wet, pancake batter. It also took way more time to bake as at 45 minutes it was still a liquid.

      Yeah – i just double-checked the original and that was right – if your strawberries and zucchini were extra juicy – or the oven was cold when you started it might have contributed to longer bake time. always good to check as you’re baking which you did.
