What is the function of vegatable oil in bread?

It is a shortening ingredient and stabilizer. Shortening refers to process where gluten formation in bread is prevented. This will make a softer bread.

Do you peel zucchini for bread?

You can blend the zucchini peel and all for bread, but on an older zucchini the peel can add some unwanted bitterness. And if the peel is used, the vegetable should be first washed in warm, soapy water to remove any wax or other substances. For peeling, a fruit/vegetable peeler works just fine if you press a little hard to get a deep enough cut to remove all of the rind.
