Ingredients
2 cups shredded zucchini (about 2 medium zucchinis, squeezed dry)
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted and cooled
1/4 cup olive oil
3 large eggs
1/2 cup sour cream
1 cup sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9×5-inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder until well combined.
In a separate medium bowl, beat the eggs. Add the melted butter, olive oil, and sour cream, mixing until smooth.
Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix.
Fold in the shredded zucchini, sharp cheddar cheese, and grated Parmesan cheese until evenly distributed.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
Bake for 45 to 50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
