Mini Banana Zucchini Bread Loaves
These Mini Banana Zucchini Bread Loaves are a healthier, vegan version of your typical banana bread. Packed with banana (of course), zucchini, and almonds. They’re easy to throw together, and lovely alongside tea.
Ingredients
- 2 spotty medium bananas
- 1 packed cup grated zucchini (approx. 1 large or 2 small zucchinis)
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 1/4 cup coconut oil
- 2/3 cup coconut sugar
- 1 tablespoon vanilla
- 1 egg or 1/2 mashed spotty banana
- 1 cup gluten-free flour, whole wheat, or oat flour
- 1/2 cup almond flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/4 tsp salt
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 175°C.
- In a large bowl, mash the bananas using a mixer. Add in the oils, coconut sugar, vanilla extract, and mix until thoroughly combined.
- Grate the zucchini and transfer to a clean tea towel or cheesecloth and squeeze out as much liquid as possible. Add the grated zucchini to the wet ingredients and mix until combined.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the flour, almond flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix until just combined (don’t overmix).
- Transfer the Banana Zucchini Bread batter to a mini loaf tin, muffin tin, or even donut mold and bake in the oven for about 24 minutes (22 minutes if using regular egg).
Notes
- Instead of using 1/4 cup coconut oil and 1/4 cup olive oil, you can also use 1/2 cup of either one. Any oil and butter would also work.
- Only have 2 bananas? Use an egg, flax egg, or 1/4 cup applesauce to replace the 1/2 banana.
- You can give the loaves a cinnamon swirl by combining 1 teaspoon cinnamon with 1/4 cup coconut sugar and swirling it through the top of the loaves right before baking.
