Brown Butter Zucchini Bread

1 loaf · 15 min prep + 55 min bake

The best way to use up that summer zucchini glut. Browning the butter adds a nutty, caramel depth.

Ingredients

  • ½ cup butter
  • 1½ cups grated zucchini, squeezed dry
  • 2 eggs
  • ¾ cup brown sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 1½ cups flour
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 1 tsp cinnamon

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F and grease a loaf pan. Brown the butter in a small pan until nutty and golden; cool slightly.
  2. Whisk the butter with eggs, brown sugar, and vanilla. Stir in the zucchini.
  3. Fold in flour, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon until just combined.
  4. Pour into the pan and bake 50–60 minutes, until a toothpick comes out clean.
  5. Cool in the pan 10 minutes, then turn out and cool before slicing.
