- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1 and 1/2 cups granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 cups grated zucchini, squeezed dry
- 1/2 cup chopped walnuts or pecans (optional)
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour (for streusel)
- 1/4 cup packed light brown sugar
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar (for streusel)
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon (for streusel)
- 1/4 cup cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9×5 inch loaf pan.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, cinnamon, baking soda, salt, and nutmeg.
- In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the sugar, vegetable oil, eggs, and vanilla extract.

- Gently fold in the grated zucchini and chopped nuts, if using.
- Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan.
- In a small bowl, combine the flour, brown sugar, granulated sugar, and cinnamon for the streusel topping. Cut in the cold butter with a fork or your fingers until crumbly.
- Sprinkle the streusel topping evenly over the batter in the loaf pan.
- Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
