Notes

Helpful tips
  • If you don't have a food processor, you can use a hand grater to shred the veggies, just know it will take a lot longer.
  • For the purpose of this recipe, I shredded the veggies separately but you can shred them together; just make sure there is more zucchini than carrot.
  • I use sprouted spelt flour in a lot of my recipes because I prefer it, but you can use white all-purpose flour instead. This recipe even works well with whole wheat flour.
  • If you haven't made zucchini bread before, just know that once you mix it, the batter may look a little dry. If so, let it sit for up to 5 minutes. Zucchini is a watery vegetable and will let go of some moisture in that 5 minutes. Don't worry, your batter won't be too watery.
