Apple Honey Zucchini Bread

by

It might be labor day but Meatless Monday never takes a day off! I love all the fall pumpkin recipes but I am not ready to embrace them quite yet given that it is still 90 degrees in the DC area. I am excited about apples though! Given that the Jewish holidays are starting next week I thought it was the perfect time to whip up an apple honey zucchini bread to share with you. Please join Tina and I for Meatless Monday.

I really enjoy cooking seasonally and apples and zucchini are perfect right now and pretty inexpensive. In the Jewish tradition, honey signifies a “sweet new year”. With the start of school and the start of a new season, it seems the perfect time to wish you all a sweet new year.

What I really love about this recipe is that it has no added white sugar. I have used a small amount of honey and the sweetness of the apples to provide just the right amount of goodness. I tried making this with other flours and didn’t get the consistency I was looking for so kept this recipe with a white flour. Feel free to experiment with your favorite flour. I think it came out fabulous hope you enjoy! It’s perfect for breakfast or paired with your afternoon coffee.

  7. This looks great! I have a standby chocolate zucchini bread recipe but this looks like a nice way to mix it up and really bring in a taste of fall. And I cannot wait for the giant honeycrisp apples to be back in full force (and not $25/apple) at the store.

  11. I can just imagine how tasty this is! It’s like a knife in my heart everytime I think about zucchini and the fact that our garden yielded zero this year. That’s just so wrong. But the neighborhood apple trees seem to be thriving, and the deer are eating all the low-hanging ones. Haha!

  14. That looks really good. It would be really good with coffee in the morning. I love zuchini bread may have to give this a try. Have a great Labor Day.

  16. I love apples and apple recipes. I’m not a huge pumpkin fan, but I suck it up because my husband and daughter are! I’d rather have apple spice or ginger bread for fall flavors. When we lived back in Northern VA. I was surprised that the schools did not give Jewish Holidays off- I thought everyone celebrated. Growing up in this part California, and with my own kids now, Jewish Holidays are a part of our culture ( even though we aren’t Jewish) I still teach my children the rituals and traditions– like the symbol and meaning behind the apple and dipping it into the sweet honey.

  20. Love this, delicious combination of a couple of my fall favorites!!
    I’m all over squash and worried all the fall squashes and apples would get past over this year from pumpkin recipes I have been seeing.

  27. I love anything made with zucchini or squash. I used to make plain zucchini bread years ago. I think it would be much tastier with applies and honey. Thanks for sharing.
