Hi Kim! I have made this recipe into muffins. Fill greased or lined muffin tins 3/4th of the way full with the batter and bake at 350 degrees F for 20-25 minutes.

This looks delicious. Can you make muffins from this recipe as is?

This was excellent! My husband and I both love this Healthy Zucchini Bread! I actually used whole wheat flour, instead of whole white wheat flour, since that is what I had and having fresh pineapple chunks, instead of a can of crushed pineapple, followed your answer to Christine above, to puree it. I did also add 1/2 cup of chopped walnuts, as suggested by other writers. This loaf is so moist and delicious! My husband always tells me not to make dessert since he is "trying to watch it", but he has had a nice big slice every night since I made it, and actually said that he didn't want to eat too much first course since he wanted to leave room for the zucchini bread! I was trying to make something tasty and healthy since he has not been feeling well lately and I was trying to tempt his appetite, and give him something healthy as well, and this Healthy Zucchini Bread certainly did just that! He's already looking forward to me making it again, and I certainly will, after we finish this one! Thank you for a wonderful recipe!

Hi Renee, well this recipe may work out for you to try in a loaf pan, but I understand your hesitation 🙂 To bake as muffins, I would bake at 350 degrees F for 18-20 minutes. Be sure to drain your zucchini well--that would be my guess as to why your loaves have so much excess moisture (and fold in like a v). I doubt it is the egg beaters.

I think it is because I use the fake eggs (Egg Beaters). I always end up with a center portion of the bread on the very top that is not cooked -- even though I always bake it the recommended time (the latest time suggested) and I always test it with a toothpick to be sure it is done. Then when I slice it, I notice a very wet center, like a V-shape at the top of each slice. This has happened to me many times -- SOOO frustrating. I now make everything in muffin tins and have solved the problem. If I made this as a muffin, would I bake it at 375? And for how long do you think? Thank you.

Sorry for the delay in responding but, this being the season of zucchini and yellow squash, I have been busy baking loaves of Healthy Zucchini Bread. Because of the heat and the cost of electricity to keep the house cool, I was extremely satisfied with my Instant Pot results. You are correct that baking in the pressure cooker makes the bread dense but I did not find it too moist - especially after reheating the bread in the microwave.

So impressed with this recipe that I’ve used it to make Healthy Cherry Bread (in the oven rather that the Instant Pot). I simply substituted the zucchini with about 1.5 cups of left over cherries and, only because I did not have it own hand, left out the crushed pineapple. It turned out great. I think it will be fantastic with the pineapple. Thanks for a great recipe.

I substituted more applesauce for the oil, which made it even healthier. Also added grated carrot for additional sweetness. The grandkids love it! This is a keeper!

Let me know how it turned out in the Instant Pot. I am typically not a fan of baking in the pressure cooker, as the bread turns out really dense and moist.

My husband, who is a picky eater, thought this recipe was keeper. Although we haven’t eaten it yet, I have experimented with cooking it in my 6 quart Instant Pot. It looks great. Can’t wait until it cools. 😋

Here is my recipe for banana bread you may enjoy. Adding a banana to this recipe would require you to reduce a bit of the zucchini so that the bread is not overly wet.

How about adding a banana?? Would that work?

Thanks,
Susanne

Hi Debra. Unfortunately, using monk fruit sweetener and almond flour would greatly impact the ratios of the remaining ingredients. I can't advise on how to proceed with using those substitutions, but here is a recipe for low-carb zucchini bread on Low Carb with Jennifer, I found that uses almond flour. It has good reviews, but I have not made it myself.

I’ve been baking with monk fruit sweetener. Could I use it as a replacement for the honey? I’m trying to control my sugar intake.
Also, how would almond flour work with this recipe? Thanks for your thoughts.

I love the flavor. This is truly a great recipe. My wife and I add chopped walnuts. (I forgot to fill in the 5 stars first time I entered a comment).
