Carrot and Zucchini bread is everything you want to eat today, it’s moist and flavorful. The color is so inviting, and vibrant and to top it off it is so easy to make. There’s no need to knead, or rising of the dough, just mix and bake.
The major is the shredding of zucchinis and carrots, and it is easy to shred, after shredding I poured the shredded zucchini in the cheese clothes (to squeeze out excess water in the zucchini) I used in TigerNut Drink
I shred the carrots and zucchini with the spiralizer I used in Teriyaki Ground Turkey Zucchini Noodles If you don’t have a spiralizer, a grater would work or just use a knife to thinly slice them and chop as you want.
