Ingredients
Scale
- 2 medium zucchinis, grated
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup non-alcoholic beef broth
- 2 teaspoons dried herbs (such as thyme and oregano)
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup olive oil
Instructions
- Step 1: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a loaf pan or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
- Step 2: In a large mixing bowl, combine the grated zucchini and shredded cheddar cheese. Stir well to distribute the cheese evenly.
- Step 3: In another bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, dried herbs, and salt until thoroughly combined.
- Step 4: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the zucchini and cheese mixture, alternating with the non-alcoholic beef broth and olive oil. Mix until just combined; do not overmix.
- Step 5: Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth out the top. Bake in the preheated oven for about 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Step 6: Allow the bread to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely. Slice and serve warm or at room temperature. Enjoy!
Notes
- Store any leftover bread in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or freeze slices for longer storage—just remember to wrap them tightly to prevent freezer burn.
- To reheat, simply pop a slice in the toaster for a crispy outside, or microwave it for about 15-20 seconds if you prefer it warm and soft.
- This bread pairs wonderfully with a light salad or can be enjoyed as a savory side with soups and stews, enhancing your meal with its cheesy and herbaceous flavors.
- For an extra flavor boost, experiment with fresh herbs instead of dried ones, or add garlic powder to the mix for an aromatic twist that complements the zucchini beautifully!
