This flavorful coconut lime zucchini loaf combines tropical coconut texture with vibrant citrus and tender zucchini for a perfectly balanced treat.

Ingredients

  • 1 ½ cups grated zucchini

  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour

  • ½ cup shredded coconut

  • ¾ cup granulated sugar

  • ½ cup vegetable oil

  • 2 large eggs

  • 1 tablespoon lime zest

  • 2 tablespoons lime juice

  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

  • 1 teaspoon baking powder

  • ½ teaspoon baking soda

  • ½ teaspoon salt

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease or line a 9×5-inch loaf pan with parchment paper.

  • Grate the zucchini and lightly squeeze out excess moisture using a paper towel.

  • In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, shredded coconut, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

  • In another bowl, mix the sugar, vegetable oil, eggs, lime zest, lime juice, and vanilla extract until smooth.

  • Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix until just combined.

  • Fold in the grated zucchini and gently stir until evenly distributed.

  • Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top.

  • Bake for 50–60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

  • Allow the loaf to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • Lightly squeeze excess moisture from the zucchini so the loaf doesn’t become too wet.

  • Avoid overmixing the batter to keep the loaf soft and tender.

  • For extra flavor, sprinkle additional shredded coconut on top before baking.

  • A simple lime glaze made with powdered sugar and lime juice can be drizzled over the cooled loaf.

  • This loaf tastes even better the next day as the flavors develop
