Recipe: Zucchini Bread (With Extra Veggies)

Recipe by Maya Feller

“This is a wonderfully balanced recipe that provides vitamins and minerals from the mbg organic veggies+ as well as fiber from the zucchini and banana,” Feller says. “Plus, the sorghum in the gluten-free baking mix adds a nice dose of plant-based protein.”

Ingredients

  • 2 eggs

  • 1 cup plant milk of your choice

  • 2 overripe bananas, mashed

  • 1 large zucchini grated

  • ⅓ cup olive oil

  • 1 tsp. almond extract

  • 3 cups gluten-free mix of your choice

  • 3 tsp. organic veggies+

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F and grease a 9-by-12-inch baking dish.
  • In a large bowl combine eggs, nondairy milk, zucchini, and mashed bananas.
  • Add olive oil and almond extract.
  • Whisk in the baking mix and organic veggies+ (avoid over-mixing).
  • Pour batter into the baking dish.
  • Bake for 35 to 40 minutes or until a toothpick comes out of the bread clean.
