Amish Zucchini Bread Ingredients
- Grated zucchini – If your zucchini is very large, cut it open and remove the seeds. But if you have a smaller zucchini, simply wash the zucchini and shred it with a grater. Leave the peels on, they contain a lot of nutritional value!
- All-Purpose Flour – The base of the zucchini bread.
- Cinnamon – This gives the bread a little bit of comforting spice flavor
- Baking soda – To help the bread rise.
- Baking powder – To help the bread rise.
- Eggs – gently incorporated to make the batter soft
- Vegetable oil – This secret ingredient replaces the butter that is used in traditional bread. However, you can also substitute butter for vegetable oil if you’re in a pinch!
- Sugar – Did you know zucchini bread is actually sweet? That’s why it can be a dessert too!
- Vanilla extract – This extract pairs beautifully with cinnamon and makes the whole house smell amazing while the bread is baking.

Amish Bread doesn’t require yeast or any kind of bread stater. This simple cinnamon quick bread makes one loaf but the recipe can easily be doubled or even tripled to make multiple loaves.

How to Make Zucchini Quick Bread
In a large bowl, stir together the eggs, oil, white sugar, and vanilla until the mixture is smooth. You can mix the dough by hand or with a mixer. Now it’s time to mix the wet ingredients with the dry ingredients.

Once the sugar mixture is homogenous, gently whisk in the baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, and flour until no clumps of dry ingredients remain. Use a dish cloth or paper towel to squeeze as much moisture out of the shredded zucchini as possible and then fold it into the batter until it is evenly distributed throughout the mixture.

It is important to squeeze as much water as you can out of the zucchini. If there is too much water in the zucchini, it will cause your loaf to cave in on itself and remain super dense after it comes out of the oven.

Pour the mixture into a 9×5 inch loaf pan and bake the bread at 325 degrees F until the top begins to turn golden brown. Allow the zucchini bread to cool down in the bread pan on a rack or heat-safe surface before removing it from the pan.
