Zucchini bread is a great all-natural grain alternative to processed loaves you see for sale at grocery store chains. This vegan zucchini loaf recipe by How Sweet Eats playfully renders the traditionally savory recipe sweet with the addition of coconut.
To make this delicious homemade veggie bread, start off with whole wheat pastry flower, baking soda and baking powder. Grated zucchini is included to add a healthy dose of your daily veggies into the mix. Vanilla, cinnamon, chocolate chip and coconut extract is added for a sweet flavor and texture. To substitute the use of eggs to make this recipe entirely vegan, use coconut oil. The coconut oil will bind the dough together and give the bread a deliciously moistened cake-bread hybrid texture. Once the bread is baked, slice it up and serve with butter.
