Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup grated zucchini (about 1 medium)
- 1/2 cup chopped pecans or walnuts (optional)
- 1/4 cup pumpkin puree (optional)
- 1/4 cup apple cider (optional)
Instructions
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves.
- Add the softened butter and sugar to the same bowl. Mix until well combined.
- Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
- Gently fold in the grated zucchini. If using, stir in the chopped nuts and pumpkin puree.
- If the batter seems too thick, add the apple cider a tablespoon at a time until the desired consistency is reached.
- Grease a 6-cup oval crockpot insert or line it with parchment paper.
- Pour the batter into the prepared crockpot insert.
- Cover and cook on low for 2 to 3 hours, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the bread cool in the crockpot for 10 minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- For an extra fall flavor, you can add a tablespoon of pumpkin pie spice along with the other spices.
- Ensure your zucchini is well-drained after grating to prevent a soggy bread.
- Cooking times may vary depending on your crockpot.
