Ingredients:

  • 3 large overripe bananas, mashed (approx. 1 ½ cups / 350g)
  • 1 cup (240ml) grated zucchini, squeezed slightly
  • ½ cup (120g) full-fat sour cream
  • ½ cup (115g) melted coconut oil
  • 2 large eggs, room temperature
  • 1 tsp (5ml) pure vanilla extract
  • ½ cup (100g) light brown sugar, packed
  • 2 cups (250g) white whole wheat flour
  • 1 tsp (5g) baking soda
  • ½ tsp (2g) baking powder
  • ½ tsp (3g) fine sea salt
  • 1 ½ tsp (4g) ground cinnamon
  • ½ tsp (1g) ground nutmeg

Instructions:

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x5 inch loaf pan and line it with parchment paper.
  2. Grate the zucchini using the large holes of a box grater. Gently pat it with a paper towel to remove excess water without squeezing it completely dry.
  3. In a large bowl, whisk together the melted coconut oil and light brown sugar.
  4. Add the eggs one at a time, whisking vigorously until the mixture is glossy.
  5. Fold in the mashed bananas, sour cream, and vanilla extract until a smooth emulsion forms.
  6. Sift the white whole wheat flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg directly into the wet ingredients.
  7. Use a spatula to fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until no flour streaks remain; do not over-mix.
  8. Gently stir in the grated zucchini.
  9. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 55–65 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
