Two beloved quick breads come together to create one heckuva whole-grain loaf. Mashed banana and shredded zucchini contribute loads of moisture so you can scale back on oil, while whole-wheat flour lends nutty flavor and a boost of fiber.
Whole-Wheat Zucchini Banana Bread Ingredients Directions Preheat the oven to 350°F (180ºC). Line a 9-by-5-inch loaf pan with parchment paper. In a large bowl, stir together zucchini, banana, sugar, oil, vanilla and egg. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, cinnamon, baking soda and salt. Add flour mixture to zucchini mixture; stir well to combine. Spoon batter into prepared pan. Bake at 350°F (177°C) until a wooden pick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs clinging, 55–60 minutes. Cool in pan for 10 minutes. Remove bread from the pan and cool on a wire rack. Serve warm or at room temperature.
