Ingredients

Zucchini Bread:

  • 2 Large Zucchinis
  • 112g (1 cup) Coconut Flour
  • 128g (⅔ cup) Truvia Spoonable
  • ½ tbs Double-Acting Baking Powder
  • ¼ tsp Salt
  • 114g (½ cup) Plain, Nonfat Greek Yogurt
  • 4 Large Eggs
  • 2 tsp Lemon Zest
  • ¾ cup Unsweetened Vanilla Almond Milk
  • 2 tsp Vanilla Extract

Lemon Cream Cheese Frosting:

  • 8 oz Neufchatel Cream Cheese (or ⅓ Less Fat Cream Cheese)
  • ¼ cup Truvia Spoonable
  • 1 tsp Lemon Zest

Instructions

For The Zucchini Bread:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Spray a 9x5” loaf pan with cooking spray and line with parchment paper one way for easy removal later.
  • Cut the ends off of the zucchini and grate them.  I used the grater attachment on my food processor!  Measure 200g (or 1¼ cups, packed) and set aside.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together the coconut flour, Truvia Spoonable, baking powder, and salt.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the yogurt and eggs.  Then whisk in the lemon zest, then the almond milk, then vanilla extract.  Dump the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients and whisk until completely combined.  Stir in the grated zucchini.
  • Pour the batter into the loaf pan and spread it out.  Bake for 1 hour and 20 minutes, or until the surface springs back when tapped. Let cool completely in the pan, then transfer to a wire cooling rack to cool completely.

For the Lemon Cream Cheese Frosting:

  • In a stand mixer bowl fitted with a whisk attachment, add the cream cheese, Truvia Spoonable, and lemon zest.  Whisk on high speed until completely smooth.
  • Frost the cooled loaf. Slice, serve, and enjoy! Store covered in the fridge for up to 5 days.
