Sharing is caring!

Zucchini Bread is a healthy and delicious way to use up extra zucchinis! This is an easy vegan recipe that is so simple to make. This is guaranteed to be a hit in your house!

Zucchini bread is a staple in our house during the summers. We always have a ton of extra zucchinis and I love to use them up to make loaves of zucchini bread. This is our go to recipe because the zucchini bread comes out perfect every time, and it swaps out oil for applesauce to make it a little more healthy.
