Did you ever play school when you were growing up? I totally did and I was pretty darn sure I was going to grow up to be a teacher. I didn’t. But I did grow up to be a banana bread lover. Not sure what that has to do with being a teacher, but it’s the truth.
Zucchini bread on the other hand, gross. I did not like the texture as a kid at all. I refused to eat it, which must have been so much fun for my parents. And then I slowly forgot about it until I became a food blogger. If there’s one thing pinterest doesn’t need more of it’s quick bread recipes, so obviously I chose to give you all one.

The most common reason forzucchini breadand other quickbreads(andcakes) to collapse as they cool is the ingredients are too vigorously or quickly mixed, which incorporates lots of less stable air bubbles into the batter.As the bread or cake cooks, those air bubbles make it rise, but because they are unstable, the bread or cake then collapses as it sits.
An excessive amount of baking powder in a banana or zucchini bread recipe can also cause the dough to rise very quickly and then fall in the center when the resulting air pockets collapse.If you use baking powder or baking soda that has aged, it may lose effectiveness.

Excess moisture or an inaccurate dry-goods measurement can cause the middle of your loaf to sink because the center of the bread is too moist and soft.Use bananas that are overripe and soft, but not mushy.The softer bananas get, the higher the liquid content becomes.Add a tablespoon of flour at a time to help reduce the moisture of the batter, just until it is thick and not watery.
Too much banana or zucchini can create a heavy loaf that may sink in the center.Follow the recipe to ensure that you add enough banana or zucchini without adding too much.
