got a zucchini bread recipe, dairy free?

post #1 of 8
Thread Starter 
For some reason I have the hardest time finding one. I prefer one that isn't cinnamon/nutmeg kind of spicy. Vegan is good, eggs are okay, milk I can sub soy if I have to.

Please help, that big zuke someone gave me is going to go bad any day now, and it's too big to eat on its own . . . tia

Here is the recipe my mom made when I was a kid

2 c peeled and grated zucchini
2 c sugar
1 c oil
3 eggs
2½ t cinnamon
½ t vanilla
½ t salt
2 t baking soda
3½ c flour

Optional:
1 c raisins
1½ c chopped pecans or walnuts

Mix everything together and divide the batter between two greased 9" loaf pans. Bake at 350°F for 60-75 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Or, spoon batter into muffin tins and bake for 20-25 minutes (makes about 2½ dozen muffins).

I use this recipe http://allrecipes.com/Recipe/Moms-Zu...ad/Detail.aspx

I use wheat flour instead and no nuts. It's not too cinimonny at all!

Funny, those 2 recipes are very similar! Will try one soon. Thanks!

I use this recipe even though it is called a "cake" and have found it to be a great baseline recipe. I have modified it in many ways, and actually I rarely even make it with zucchini anymore, but I'm getting ready to make it again with a big zuc from the garden, I'll be putting in corn and rehydrated dried tomatoes instead of the nuts and chocolate chips. It is a fun recipe to change.

One thing I will specify though is myself and others have made it with much less sweetner, sometimes with none at all so don't be put off by the sugar amount listed.

Have you tried one yet? there are a couple I make regularly (and I'm always looking for new ones to try!) but this one is great and dairy free. I like that is uses more zucchini than most recipes. I do usually sub about 1/3 - 1/2 WW flour.

That's basically mine. I've found I can put anything besides zucchini in as well. I just made zucchini muffins yesterday!

Funny, the extra-zuke recipe is very similar to those other 2! But with more zuke. It's in the oven right now. I liked the last ones, split the slight differences, and did find that the quantity of sugar was more than enough.

The cake recipe looks interesting. Maybe I'll try it if I get any more monsters this year. I didn't grow any myself, but I know plenty of gardeners, so it wouldn't be a surprise.

Thanks, everyone!
