Sunflower Fig Zucchini Bread

  • Prep Time: 15 minutes
  • Cook Time: 50 minutes
  • Total Time: 1 hour 5 minutes
  • Yield: 2 loaves (about 10 slices each) 1x

Ingredients

Scale

The wet ingredients:

  • 2 1/2 cups shredded zucchini
  • 2 eggs
  • 2/3 cup Greek yogurt
  • 1/4 cup oil
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1 Tablespoon vanilla extract
  • Zest of 1 orange

The dry ingredients:

  • 2 cups whole wheat flour
  • 1 cup all purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon salt

Mix-ins:

  • About 510 fresh figs, chopped (1 cup or more)
  • About 1 cup chopped dates
  • 1/2 cup roasted sunflower seeds

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 F. Spray two 9×5-inch loaf pans with cooking spray.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, stir together all the wet ingredients until well mixed. Sprinkle the dry ingredients over top and stir to mix them in well. This mixture should form a nice batter. Fold in the mix-ins.
  3. Divide the batter amongst the two loaf pans. Sprinkle the top of the loaves with some extra sunflowers and a bit of coarse raw (turbinado) sugar. Bake at 350 F. for at least 50 minutes or longer, until a wooden pick or knife inserted in the center comes out clean.
  4. Remove from the oven, let sit for a few minutes, then release the loaves from their baking pans, setting on a rack to cool. Slice and enjoy!
