This is the best zucchini bread recipe, and anyone can easily make it from scratch. I’ve noticed that a lot of my friends underrate baked goods with zucchini. To tell the truth, I was like them until one summer. I tried my mom’s zucchini bread. It was amazing, full of flavor, lightly spiced, sweet, soft, and moist. After that day, I started adding zucchini to muffins, bread, pancakes, and cakes. Give this orange zucchini bread recipe a try – you won’t regret it!
How To Make Orange Zucchini Bread Moist?
It is super easy to make this orange zucchini bread. Just follow the instructions below. Adding vegetable oil, applesauce, and grated zucchini will make your orange zucchini bread so moist.
How To Freeze Zucchini Bread?
You can freeze the whole bread or leftovers. Just bake the orange zucchini bread and let it cool completely before freezing. I recommend freezing the whole bread without glaze. To freeze, wrap the whole bread or leftovers with a plastic wrap or aluminum foil in a double layer and place in an airtight container or a ziplock bag.
Cooking tips:
This orange zucchini bread is very versatile. You can customize it with your favorite fillings – dried fruits, nuts, chocolate, grated carrot, or spices. Don’t use more than ⅓ cup filling in total. Don’t squeeze the moisture from the zucchini. If you have super wet zucchini, you can pat them with a paper towel. Use freshly squeezed orange juice and freshly grated orange zest. It will lend a unique fresh citrus flavor to your bread. To remove the bread easily from the loaf pan, I recommend lining a greased pan with parchment paper, leaving some paper hanging on two sides.
Storing Leftovers
If you want to store leftover orange zucchini bread, you can wrap leftovers with plastic wrap or aluminum foil and place them in an airtight container or resealable plastic bag. This way, you can store leftovers on the counter for up to three days. Then, if you still have leftovers, you can transfer them to the refrigerator.
