Preheat the oven to 350°F (177°C)
Grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan
Whisk the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg together in a large bowl until thoroughly combined; set aside
In a medium bowl, whisk the oil, brown sugar, granulated sugar, eggs, applesauce, and vanilla together until combined
Whisk in the zucchini
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently stir or whisk until just combined; do not overmix
Fold in any optional add-ins like chocolate chips or nuts
Spread the batter evenly into the prepared loaf pan
Bake, loosely covering with aluminum foil halfway through if desired to prevent heavy browning, until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out mostly clean with zero raw batter
Remove the bread from the oven and set on a wire rack
Cool in pan before removing from pan
For neat slices, continue cooling bread directly on a wire rack and then slice once cooled
Cover and store leftover bread at room temperature for up to 3-4 days or in the refrigerator for up to 1 week
You're all done!
Enjoy your zucchini bread — and don't forget to share.
