Ingredients

  • ¾ cup whole wheat pastry flour You can also use an all purpose or gluten free if you prefer.
  • ¾ cup all-purpose
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ cup melted butter
  • ¼ cup canola or other neutral oil
  • ¼ cup sour cream or plain Greek yogurt
  • cup brown sugar you can also use granulated, coconut or even maple syrup if you prefer
  • 1 egg
  • 1 cup grated zucchini squeeze to remove liquid
  • 2 ripe bananas, mashed
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Prep your loaf pan. I used an 8 ½ x 4 ½ inch pan. You can use a pan spray or brush it with butter.
  • In a small bowl, mix together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
  • In another larger bowl, add oil, butter, sugar. Mix them well, then add in the vanilla and egg. Mix to combine.
  • Add in zucchini and mashed bananas. Mix to combine. Add in dry ingredients, at this point be careful not to overmix.
  • Pour your batter into the prepared pan.
  • Bake for 50-60 minutes. Remove from the oven and allow it to cool for about 5-10 minutes. Then carefully invert to remove it from the pan.
  • I like to eat this hot, with plenty of butter, but it also really good cooled.
  • Now, sit back and enjoy. You deserve it!
