So after trying out various savoury dishes made with zucchini, this time I thought of making a Zucchini cake. This wholesome cake contains the goodness of whole wheat flour, eggs, yogurt and of course zucchini. The use of yogurt along with the zucchini makes this cake incredibly soft and moist.

You can also add some walnuts or chocolate chips as per your liking. Zucchini has a lot of water content in it. So it's important to take out the excess moisture before adding it to your cake batter. Enjoy it with your cup of tea or coffee, or just as a snack. You can also put it in your kids lunch box.

Serve Whole Wheat Zucchini Cake along with Espresso Coffee and Scrambled Egg Sandwich with Cucumber for your tea time break or for evening snacks.

Instructions for Whole Wheat Zucchini Cake Recipe

To begin making the Whole Wheat Zucchini Cake recipe, put the oven on preheat at 180°C and grease your cake mould with oil.

In a bowl, add flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon powder. Sift this dry mixture through a fine sieve and keep it aside.

In a separate bowl, add eggs and beat with an electric beater at high speed for a minute. You can use a hand whisk also. Add sugar to the beaten eggs and again beat at high till the mixture becomes pale and fluffy.

Once it is done, add oil, curd, and vanilla essence to the egg mixture and beat at medium speed till well combined.

Next, gradually add the sifted flour mixture and beat at the lowest speed until just combined. Do not overmix.

With the help of a spatula, fold in the grated zucchini until well incorporated. If using walnuts or chocolate chips, add them also along with the zucchini.

Pour the batter into the prepared mould and bake at 180°C for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
