Description

Makes: 1 loaf
Prep Time: 15 minutes
Bake Time: 50–60 minutes


Ingredients

Scale

  • 1½ cups Doudlah Farms einkorn flour
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • ½ tsp baking powder
  • ½ tsp sea salt
  • 1½ tsp ground cinnamon
  • ¼ tsp nutmeg (optional)
  • 2 large eggs
  • ½ cup olive oil or melted coconut oil
  • ½ cup honey, maple syrup, or organic cane sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1½ cups grated zucchini (moisture gently squeezed out)
  • ½ cup chopped walnuts or sunflower kernels (optional)


Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease or line a 9×5-inch loaf pan with parchment paper.
  2. Mix dry ingredients:
    In a medium bowl, whisk together the einkorn flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
  3. Whisk wet ingredients:
    In a large bowl, beat the eggs. Add the oil, honey (or other sweetener), and vanilla extract. Mix well.
  4. Fold in zucchini:
    Stir the grated zucchini into the wet mixture until evenly combined.
  5. Combine wet and dry:
    Add the dry ingredients into the wet, stirring until just combined. Do not overmix. Fold in nuts or sunflower kernels, if using.
  6. Bake:
    Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan. Bake for 50–60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  7. Cool & enjoy:
    Let the loaf cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack. Slice and serve warm with butter, nut butter, or enjoy plain!
