Ingredients and Substitutions

This vegan zucchini bread recipe is a very healthy breakfast bread using only gluten-free nourishing flour and no oil or refined sugar. All you need to make this healthy vegan bread recipe are:

Grated Zucchini – Make sure you squeeze out ALL the water from the zucchini, or your zucchini bread will be too moist. Coconut Sugar – or unrefined cane sugar if preferred. Maple Syrup – or agave syrup or rice syrup. Applesauce – this is an oil-free vegan zucchini bread recipe. Therefore, applesauce replaces oil and creates the best moist texture too. Unsweetened Non-Dairy Milk – any dairy-free milk like almond milk, oat milk, or soy milk works in this recipe. Nuts – the secret of this vegan zucchini bread is the addition of crunchy walnuts and pecans. Both add nutritional values, vegan iron, and vegan proteins while adding the most delicious texture. Spices – a combination of ground cinnamon, ginger, and nutmeg. Lemon Glazing – This is optional, but the glazing adds a tangy flavor to the bread. Its made of powdered sugar-free erythritol (or icing sugar) and lemon juice. Oat Flour – make sure it is ultra-fine, or it will not absorb moisture the same way. To make your own oat flour, place rolled oats into a powerful blender or food processor. Pulse until fine, usually 2 minutes maximum. You can swap oat flour with all-purpose wheat flour if desired. Almond Flour – You can use almond flour or the coarser almond meal. Arrowroot Flour or tapioca flour Baking Powder – You need 3 teaspoons of baking powder in this recipe.

Gluten-free zucchini bread can be stored for up to 3 days in the pantry or 5 days in the fridge. Another option is to freeze the bread in an airtight container, and cut it into slices. Simply defrost the bread slice the day before on a plate at room temperature.
