Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease 2 to 3 loaf pans.
  2. Combine eggs and sugar in a mixing bowl, whisk until frothy. Add oil, zucchini, and mashed bananas, mixing well.
  3. Stir in vanilla extract. In a separate bowl, whisk flour, cinnamon, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add dry mix to wet ingredients, folding gently.
  4. Divide batter evenly among the pans, filling each about 2/3 full and smooth the tops.

Notes

For maximum sweetness and moisture, use overripe bananas. Pat dry zucchini to avoid a soggy bread. Don't overmix for a lighter texture.
