Zucchini-Pistachio-Raisin Quick Bread with Orange Glaze image

Add fruit flavor to this zucchini-pistachio bread with raisins and an orange glaze.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     dessert

Time 2h45m

Yield 1 regular loaf or 3 mini loaves

Number Of Ingredients 18

1/2 cup melted unsalted butter or vegetable oil, plus more melted butter, for the pan
1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
1 cup raisins
3/4 cup chopped toasted pistachios
1/2 cup plain yogurt or sour cream
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon grated lemon or orange zest, optional
1 cup shredded zucchini, excess moisture squeezed out
1 cup confectioners' sugar
1 tablespoon milk
1 teaspoon orange zest, plus 1 tablespoon juice

Steps:

  • For the quick bread: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly brush one 9-by-5-by-3-inch loaf pan or three 6-by-3-by-2-inch mini loaf pans with melted butter and set aside.
  • Combine the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, salt, baking soda, cinnamon and nutmeg in a medium bowl. Add the raisins and pistachios and toss together. Set aside.
  • Whisk together the melted butter, yogurt, vanilla extract, eggs and grated zest if using in a small bowl. Stir in the shredded zucchini. Fold this mixture into the flour mixture until just incorporated.
  • Transfer the batter to the prepared loaf pan(s). Tap the bottom on a hard surface a few times and smooth the top. Bake until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 55 to 60 minutes for the regular loaf and 35 to 40 minutes for the minis. Transfer to a wire rack to cool for 30 minutes, then turn the bread out and let cool completely on the rack.
  • For the orange glaze: Whisk together the confectioners' sugar, milk and orange zest and juice in a small bowl.
  • Pour the glaze over the bread and allow to set at room temperature, 15 to 20 minutes. Store in an airtight container for up to 1 week.
  • Cook's Note: When measuring flour, we spoon it into a dry measuring cup and level off the excess. (Scooping directly from the bag compacts the flour, resulting in dry baked goods.)
  • Try not to use dark coated baking pans; the quick bread could get too dark.
  • Most quick breads taste better if left to sit overnight.

ZUCCHINI ORANGE DATE NUT BREAD - DEE DEE'S



Zucchini Orange Date Nut Bread - Dee Dee's image

If you don't care for Zucchini, this moist and delicious bread may just change your mind! It did mine! When I was still working, an elderly customer that I was very fond of would come in the bank and share gardening tips and recipes with me. This is a recipe that she shared with me and boy am I glad she did! Use coconut oil...

Provided by Diane Atherton

Categories     Sweet Breads

Time 1h50m

Number Of Ingredients 14

3 large eggs
1 c cooking oil (or 3/4 cup) (i used 3/4 cup coconut oil)
1 1/2 c sugar (or 1 cup honey) (i used 1 cup honey)
IF YOU USE HONEY, USE THE LESSOR AMOUNT OF COOKING OIL
1 3/4 c zucchini, unpeeled and grated
2 Tbsp orange peel (zest)
1/4 c orange juice, fresh
1 c dates, chopped
1 c nuts, chopped (i used walnuts)
1 tsp vanilla
3 c all purpose flour
1/2 tsp salt
2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • 2. In a mixing bowl, beat eggs, cooking oil and sugar together until creamy and well blended; add zucchini, orange peel, orange juice, dates, nuts and vanilla; mix well. Set aside.
  • 3. Stir the flour mixture into the creamy ingredients. Stir until well blended
  • 4. Grease and flour a 9 x 5-inch loaf pan; pour in the batter and bake for about 45 minutes or until well done. IT TOOK ABOUT 1 1/2 HOURS IN MY OVEN! My oven is new. So, just make sure it's done before removing from oven. I used a cake tester to test, tested until it came out clean. You can use a toothpick for same results.
  • 5. NOTE: When I poured the ingredients in the pan, I was certain this batter would rise and run over in to the oven so I placed a piece of aluminum foil under the pan in case it did. It did rise about 1-inch over the top of pan, but it didn't run over. Perhaps this could be put into 2 loaf pans and baked for 45 minutes.
  • 6. Serving suggestions: Spread with cream cheese to serve.
