Anyone else out there hanging out with some late-season zucchini from their garden? Well, here’s a great way to use it up: Pumpkin Zucchini Bread! It’s a combo of my favorite pumpkin bread with zucchini bread and it’s so moist, delicious, and perfect for fall.

Why This Recipe Works

• The shredded zucchini and pumpkin puree gives the bread lots of moisture!
• It has a cinnamon swirl baked right inside for a fall spice surprise when you slice into it.
• It only takes about 15 minutes to make the batter and it’s ready to go in the oven.
• Store it at room temperature for several days or pop it in the freezer for later!

Ingredients

• Eggs
• Sugar
• Canned pumpkin puree
• Melted butter
• Vanilla extract
• All-purpose flour
• Baking soda
• Salt
• Ground cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves
• Shredded zucchini

Make sure to double check that you have pumpkin puree and not pumpkin pie filling. They aren’t the same thing! For this recipe, you want just the puree without the other ingredients that are in pie filling.

Sometimes I use my pumpkin pie spice that I mix myself in place of the spices listed in the recipe. You can substitute about ¾ of a tablespoon of the spice mix if you have it on hand!

Make the Batter

In a large bowl, mix the eggs and sugar. Add the pumpkin, butter, and vanilla and mix until smooth.

In a medium bowl, combine all of the dry ingredients together and then add them to the wet ingredients. Stir until the batter is combined and then add the shredded zucchini.

Make the Cinnamon Swirl

Mix cinnamon and sugar together in a bowl. Pour half of the batter into a prepared loaf pans. Divide the cinnamon-sugar mixture evenly between them and sprinkle it into an even layer.

Pour the rest of the batter into the pans and bake the bread for 45 minutes at 350 degrees F. Cool the loaves in the pan for 10 minutes before turning them out onto a rack to cool completely before slicing and serving.
