Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Whole Wheat Zucchini Carrot Banana Bread.
Step 1
Begin by preheating your oven to a cozy 350°F (175°C) and generously greasing a loaf pan to ensure your bread releases effortlessly.
Step 2
In a spacious mixing bowl, take your ripe bananas and mash them into a silky smooth puree.
Step 3
Next, whisk in the beaten eggs, white sugar, honey, oil, and a splash of vanilla extract until everything is harmoniously blended.
Step 4
In a separate bowl, combine whole wheat flour, all-purpose flour, fragrant ground cinnamon, baking soda, baking powder, and a pinch of salt.
Step 5
Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the banana mixture, stirring gently until just moistened—remember, overmixing is the enemy of fluffy bread.
Step 6
Now, introduce the grated zucchini, grated carrot, and if you’re feeling indulgent, some chocolate chips, folding them in until they’re evenly scattered throughout the batter.
Step 7
Pour this delightful mixture into your prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top with a spatula for a polished finish.
Step 8
Slide the pan into your preheated oven and let it bake for 50 to 60 minutes, or until a knife inserted into the center emerges clean, signaling that your creation is ready.
Step 9
Once baked, allow the bread to cool in the pan for a few moments before transferring it to a wire rack, where it will cool completely, filling your kitchen with an irresistible aroma.
Step 10
Enjoy the fruits of your labor with a slice of this wholesome banana bread!.
