Ingredients

3 eggs size large
1/2 cup olive oil 125 mL
2 3/4 cups almond meal 280 g
1/2 tbsp baking powder 4 g
2 tsp dried oregano 1 g
1 pinch nutmeg
1/4 tsp salt 1 g
1 zucchini, unpeeled, shredded 130 g
1/2 cup walnuts, chopped 50 g

Before you start

A hand-held or stand mixer will make things easier for this recipe.

Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 175°C/350°F. Generously oil a loaf pan.
  2. Beat together the eggs and oil in a large bowl.
  3. Sift together the almond flour, baking powder, oregano, nutmeg, and salt into another bowl. Fold the almond mixture into the egg-oil bowl, combining them gently but thoroughly. Stir in the nuts and zucchini.
  4. Pour the batter in the prepared loaf pan, spreading it evenly, then bake the bread in the middle of the oven until golden-brown about 60 min. Check with a toothpick or skewer to see if the bread is cooked through.
  5. Cool the bread 10 min in the pan, then remove it from the pan and let it cool on a wire rack for at least 30 min before slicing.

Observations

The zucchini bread, wrapped well in foil, will keep at room temperature for 1 week or frozen for 1 month.
