Ingredients:
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup whole wheat flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup shredded zucchini (about 1 medium zucchini)
- 1 cup pumpkin puree
- 1/2 cup chopped walnuts or pecans (optional)
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×5 inch loaf pan.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Set it aside.
- In another bowl, mix the vegetable oil, brown sugar, granulated sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract until well combined.
- Add the shredded zucchini and pumpkin puree to the wet ingredients and stir until smooth.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.
- If you want a little crunch, fold in the chopped walnuts or pecans at this stage.
- Pour the batter into your prepared loaf pan and spread it out evenly.
- Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. If the top is browning too quickly, tent it with aluminum foil.
- Once baked, allow the bread to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
This Pumpkin Zucchini Bread is not only delicious, but it’s also a great way to sneak in some veggies! Enjoy a slice warm or toasted with a bit of butter, and savor the wonderful flavors. Happy baking!
