Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup mashed ripe bananas about 2 bananas
  • 1 cup zucchini shredded
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/4 cup olive oil or melted coconut oil
  • 1/3 cup honey or maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cups whole wheat flour or all-purpose
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • Optional: 1/2 cup chopped walnuts or chocolate chips

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a loaf pan lightly.
  • In a big bowl, mash the bananas. Add eggs, oil, honey, and vanilla, mixing until combined.
  • Stir in the zucchini until mixed well.
  • Add flour, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon, stirring until just combined.
  • If desired, fold in chopped nuts or chocolate chips.
  • Pour the mixture into the loaf pan and bake for 50-55 minutes.
  • Check doneness by inserting a toothpick in the center; it should come out mostly clean.
  • Let it cool for a few minutes before slicing.

Notes

Store in an airtight container on the counter for up to three days. Refrigerate for up to a week but expect a denser texture. Freeze by slicing and placing parchment between slices.
