  • 1 1/2 Cups Shredded Zucchini drained
  • 2 Cups All-Purpose Flour
  • 1 tsp Baking Powder

  • 1/2 tsp Salt
  • 1 tsp Cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp Nutmeg
  • For the glaze-

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and line a loaf pan with parchment paper.
  • In a large bowl stir together the butter, eggs, sugar, brown sugar and vanilla until well mixed.
  • Fold in the grated zucchini and pineapple until evenly distributed. (make sure to drain the zucchini before adding)
  • In a separate medium mixing bow whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon and nutmeg until well mixed.
  • Stir the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients gradually, stirring after each addition.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared bread pan and place in the oven to bake for 50-60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  • Remove from the oven and place on a wire rack and let cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before removing from the pan to the wire rack to cool completely before glazing.
  • To make the glaze-
  • Place the powdered sugar in a small bowl and gradually add in the reserved pineapple juice stirring after each addition until the desired consistency is reached. If a thicker glaze is desired add less juice, if you prefer a more liquid glaze add more.
  • Drizzle the glaze evenly across the top of the zucchini pineapple bread, slice and serve.
