- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon lemon zest
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Mix the dry ingredients in a bowl: flour, sugar, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
- Combine the wet ingredients in a separate bowl: zucchini, oil, eggs, lemon zest, and vanilla.
- Fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients gently to avoid overmixing.
- Pour the batter into a prepared loaf pan.

Notes
Ensure zucchini is well-drained to avoid excess moisture. For variations, try adding nuts or chocolate chips.
