In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, oil, both sugars, and vanilla until smooth.
Add in the zucchini and apple
Stir the grated fruits/veggies into the wet mixture.
Combine dry ingredients
In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.
Combine wet and dry
Add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture and stir until just combined. Fold in nuts and dried fruit if using.
Bake
Pour batter into a greased loaf pan. Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 50–60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Cool
Let cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
🍂 Tips for the Best Apple Zucchini Bread
Don’t overmix the batter—it keeps the loaf tender.
Let the bread cool fully before slicing for clean cuts.
Add a light glaze or powdered sugar dusting for a sweeter finish.
Swap out flour for a gluten-free blend, or sugar for maple syrup or honey if you prefer.
