  • Author: Lauren Baker
  • Total Time: 1 hour

Ingredients

– 1 cup grated zucchini
– 1 cup chopped green onions
– 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
– 2 cups all-purpose flour
– 2 teaspoons baking powder
– ½ teaspoon baking soda
– 1 teaspoon salt
– 1 tablespoon sugar
– 2 large eggs
– 1 cup buttermilk
– ¼ cup vegetable oil
– 1 teaspoon garlic powder (optional)


Instructions

Making this delicious Green Onion Zucchini Cheddar Quick Bread is a straightforward process. Follow these simple steps:

1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan.
2. Prep Ingredients: In a bowl, lightly squeeze the grated zucchini with a paper towel to remove excess moisture. This will prevent the bread from getting soggy.
3. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, sugar, and garlic powder. Mix well until combined.
4. Combine Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, whisk together the eggs, buttermilk, and vegetable oil until well combined.
5. Add Zucchini and Green Onions: Stir the grated zucchini and chopped green onions into the wet mixture, ensuring they are evenly distributed.
6. Combine Mixtures: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Gently mix until just combined, being careful not to overmix. This will keep the bread light and fluffy.
7. Fold in Cheese: Carefully fold in the shredded cheddar cheese to the batter, ensuring it’s evenly mixed.
8. Transfer to Pan: Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.
9. Bake: Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 40-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
10. Cool: Remove from the oven and let the bread cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Then, carefully transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
