Equipment

Ingredients

1 cup neutral oil such as avocado or canola
3 large eggs
1 Tablespoon vanilla extract
About 3 cups chunks of zucchini about 1 very largezucchini
2 cups sugar
3 cups gluten free flour see notes
1 teaspoon salt
1 Tablespoon baking powder
1 ½ teaspoons cinnamon

Instructions

Blend oil, eggs, vanilla and 2 ½ cups zucchini together in a blender until you have 4 cups mixture. Add more zucchini if needed to reach the 4 cups.
Add remaining ingredients and blend until smooth.
Spray loaf pans (8 mini or 2 regular, or any combination) with cooking spray.
Pour batter into pans.
Preheat oven to 350° F (letting batter sit while you preheat oven eliminates any gritty texture).
Bake large loaves for 35-40 minutes, mini loaves 17-22 minutes, until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Be careful not to over bake, as they could become dry.
Let cool in pans for 10 minutes before removing to cooling rack, then cool completely before slicing.
Store in plastic bags in fridge up to 7 days, counter up to 2, or freeze for longer.

Notes

I have tested this recipe with Bob's Red Mill 1:1, Cup4Cup, King Arthur Measure for Measure, my gluten free flour mix recipe, and Better Batter. They all work great! Although I love gfJules for other recipes, it is too starchy for this one.

To make chocolate zucchini bread, add ¼ cup cocoa powder and ½ teaspoon baking soda with the flour, then stirring in 1 ½ cups mini chocolate chips to the batter.

One reader made Black Forest zucchini bread by adding 3 T cocoa, ¾ cup dark chocolate chips, and 1 cup dried cherries. Another baked it in a bundt pan. It's a very versatile recipe and will turn out fantastic any way you make it!
Any blender will work, but if you're looking for a new blender, I LOVE my Blendtec which is linked below. You could also probably use a good quality food processor.
