• baking powder/soda - to help the bread get a beautiful domed shape
• salt - to help enhance the flavor
• oil - to add moisture to the zucchini loaf
• sugars - for sweetness
• eggs - to help hold everything together and add some rise to the cake
• sour cream - or plain yogurt, to add a bit of moisture

Tips for the best zucchini bread:

• do not over-stir the batter, this can make a tougher loaf
• do not drain the zucchini, this loaf requires the moisture from the zucchini to bake properly
• you can use a food processor with a grater attachment to quickly and efficiently shred zucchini
• check the loaf for done-ness after 55 minutes, and then every 2-3 minutes after that to prevent over baking (a few crumbs on the toothpick is okay)
• grease the loaf pan really well to make sure the loaf slips out easily after baking

This zucchini loaf stays fresh when stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. It can also be frozen for up to three months. Wrap in plastic wrap followed by tin foil for the freezer, thaw overnight in the fridge for best results.
