No Mixer Banana Zucchini Bread

Recipes that require a stand mixer for banana bread are a pet peeve of mine. This is a “quick bread” which for me means one bowl and you’re done. If you don’t have zucchini, make this anyway, just use 3 bananas. If you don’t have bananas, use 2 zucchini.

  • 2 ripe bananas

  • 1 medium zucchini, grated

  • 1⁄3 c melted butter

  • 3⁄4 c sugar

  • 1 egg, lightly beaten

  • 2 t vanilla

  • 1⁄4 t kosher salt

  • 1⁄4 t grated nutmeg

  • 1 t baking soda '

  • 1 1⁄2 c all purpose flour

  • 1 T sparkling sugar

Butter a loaf pan (10”x5”x3”) and set aside. Preheat the oven to 350.

Add salt, nutmeg, and baking soda to flour and stir to combine.

Mash the bananas with a fork in a large bowl. Add in the grated zucchini and the melted butter. Stir to combine. Add the sugar, egg, and vanilla. Add dry ingredients to the banana mixture and fold to combine. Smooth the top and sprinkle with sparkling sugar.

Bake about 55 minutes, until a cake tester comes out clean.
