Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 2 large Eggs
- 0.5 cup Vegetable oil
- 0.5 cup Buttermilk
- 1.5 cups Zucchini, grated
- 0.75 cup Sauerkraut, drained and roughly chopped
- 0.5 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a standard 9x5-inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and ground black pepper.
In a separate medium bowl, beat the eggs until light and frothy. Add the vegetable oil and buttermilk, whisking to combine.
Stir the wet mixture into the bowl of dry ingredients, mixing just until combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Gently fold in the grated zucchini, drained sauerkraut, Parmesan cheese, and chopped parsley until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 50–55 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Allow the loaf to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Once cooled, slice and serve as a snack, side dish, or hearty breakfast. Enjoy!
