Bread Machine Zucchini Bread Recipe

Bread machine zucchini bread couldn’t be easier! Just place all the ingredients for this simple quick bread into your machine and you’ll have a fragrant loaf of quick bread before you know it.

I’ve used a bread machine for years to bake up homemade sandwich bread for my family in a completely hands-off way. My old sunbeam bread machine was at least 20 years old, purchased second hand from a garage sale for $10. We definitly got our money’s worth and then some!

Quick

When I accidentally managed to knock it off the counter, I actually cried when the housing shattered on the floor. My baby was gone.

Healthy Zucchini Bread

Now in the spring of 2020, bread machines are having a revival as everyone collectively bakes together…apart in their own kitchens. I had a hard time finding a replacement for my baby, but I happened upon a Zolrushi Supreme Bread Maker though it was pricey, I couldn’t pass it up. They’re supposed to be the best bread machine on the market, and I’m going to put it to good use baking several times per week.

I especially love that it bakes a horizontal loaf, which works better for “quick breads, ” as well as larger 2-pound loaf breads. Vertical loaves like those made in the old-fashioned bread machine models can be a bit dense, since all the weight of the bread is pressing down on everything below. Horizontal loaf pans work better for zucchini bread and banana bread, but also for larger 2-pound loaves in general.

When I brought my new baby home, I set it on the counter next to fresh zucchini from the garden, and I knew right away what my first batch would be.

Bake The Best Gluten Free Bread With Your Bread Machine

I’d honestly never made zucchini bread in a bread machine before. I’d always stuck with yeasted breads, but a new machine calls for a new adventure, and bread machine zucchini bread was quick and easy.

The ingredients for zucchini bread in a bread machine are basically the same as any homemade zucchini quick bread. Place beaten eggs and vegetable oil on the bottom, then add in a layer of flour to separate the wet ingredients from the dry.

Pile sugar, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, allspice, and salt atop the flour island and you’re ready to bake. (Note that the zucchini is added later.)

Best Sourdough Zucchini Bread

Turn on the bread machine and select the “cake” or “quick bread” cycle. This varies based on the machine, and on some machines, the “quick” cycle is still for a yeast-leavened bread. Be sure you select the cycle that does not have a rise time, but rather just mixes the ingredients and then bakes.

Allow the dough to mix for a few minutes before adding the zucchini. My bread machine has a little buzzer that goes off after a few minutes to tell you it’s time to add in the mix-ins. Adding in the zucchini as a mixin gives a better-finished product, and allows you to check to make sure the flour is fully incorporated at that point (if it’s not, use a spatula to scrape down the sides of the pan).

If your bread machine doesn’t have a mix-in timer, or you want to do a time delay bake, or you simply just don’t want to fuss with it…go ahead and add the zucchini in with the wet ingredients. Beat the eggs together, add the oil, and then stir in the zucchini until it’s fully coated in the mixture. This will help it fully mix into the batter (rather than leaving clumps of zucchini).

Amazing Zucchini Bread Recipe The Kids Can Make

(This recipe is adapted from the Zolrushi Supreme Bread Maker manual. The original recipe included nuts and candied orange peel, which you could add if it suits your fancy.)

Be careful with the flour measurement here. To get the 240 grams of flour in this recipe, I'd suggest spooning your flour into the cup and leveling it. If you scoop the flour, you'll end up packing it into the cup and have quite a bit more than the recipe calls for. This may result in dry bread, which is not good for anyone!

The quick bread or cake cycles on bread machines vary. This bread was made with an 80 minute bake time. The standard cake cycle on my machine has 24 minutes to mix, 80 minutes to bake, and then 16 minutes to cool. The total time is 2 hours. If your machine varies more than slightly, us the manual mode if available.

And it’s a great machine for kids to learn to use too. Unless it’s baking and is hot, it’s relatively safe. There are no sharp pieces or tools. All kids need to do is add ingredients to one attached bowl. There’s little chance they’ll knock anything over or spill any ingredients. And if your kids are like my daughter, they’ll be fascinated as they watch the ingredients mix together to form a dough. It’s a great science and STEM activity.

Zucchini Bread Recipe

For quick bread (bread that doesn't need time to rise) all purpose flour is perfect. It has a low protein content that works well when creating breads that are dense and don't need to rise.

Bread flour is an okay alternative. But it has a higher amount of protein and gluten, which creates a chewy, airy bread so the texture will be a little different.

Yes, use ¾ cup of whole wheat flour for every 1 cup of all purpose flour called for in a recipe when making this substitution.
