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.
When I make zucchini bread, I do not peel it. I just cut in half and grate it with a cheese grater. That works wonderfully!
no, i would say Zucchini bread has 1800 century American origins.
No
Banana bread, zucchini bread, poppysead bread, carrot bread... etc....
Yes, zucchini bread can be made without cinnamon, but it will not taste quite the same as traditional zucchini bread. You might want to experiment by substituting other "sweet" spices such as ginger, allspice or nutmeg.
To make moist zucchini bread, ensure you grate the zucchini finely and squeeze out excess moisture before adding it to the batter. Additionally, use ingredients like oil, yogurt, or applesauce to keep the bread moist during baking.
They probably did.
Yes, melted shortening can replace vegetable oil in zucchini bread, although shortening is not a healthy choice.
It will lack flavor
I love zucchini and grow it in my garden every year. Zucchini is pretty much tasteless, and takes on the flavor of whatever it is mixed in with it. I make zucchini bread with pineapple, nuts and raisins, chocolate zucchini bread, which tastes like brownies, lemon zucchini bread with nuts, zest of a lemon and lemon flavoring. With that being said, this is how I would do it. If you want zucchini to taste like apple pie use all the ingredients you normally use for apple pie, substituting zucchini for apples. Zucchini has a lot of water, so I think I would slice, chop it and put on paper towels to remove some of the moisture. I even think you could mix zucchini and apples.
A bread peel is used in baking to easily transfer bread dough in and out of a hot oven, helping to maintain the shape of the dough and prevent burns.
Yes! I eat it for dessert sometimes.
