What is Zucchini whole wheat bread?
Zucchini whole wheat bread is a loaf made with whole wheat flour and grated zucchini mixed into the dough. The zucchini adds moisture, so the crumb is often soft and tender; recipes may keep the flavour savoury or add mild herbs and spices.
Serve slices at breakfast or lunch with cheese, eggs, soup, or a simple spread. It also works toasted, though its moist texture may make it toast more slowly than a plain loaf. Whole wheat flour makes this a fibre-containing choice: it provides 6.4 g of fibre per 100 g. For a lighter topping, try hummus, cottage cheese, or sliced tomato rather than a rich spread.
