put the loaf pan into a preheated oven at 170°C (340°F) for 50 minutes. For testing, dip a wooden stick into the cake and if it comes out clean, that means that the bread is ready and if it didn't, put it back into the oven again.

Tips and tricks

  • The batter will be stiff but do not add any other liquid because otherwise, it will not set.
  • It may sound like the sugar quantity of this recipe, is a lot. But the brown sugar tastes less sweet than white sugar. So the sweetness of this bread is appropriate.
  • This amount is about 1 kilogram. So 8 slices would be 125 grams.

Background & History

This recipe would be awesome for cakes with juicy and hard fruits. I used to bake apple cake with 90% of this recipe, and it turned out great. So this recipe reminds me of that apple cake with a truly delicious taste. Plus, you can try carrots instead of zucchini; it would work too.
