This easy pumpkin zucchini bread recipe is one of my favorites for any time of year – enjoy!
Our neighbor shared some zucchini from his family’s garden with us this week and I immediately wanted to make some zucchini bread.
I had a can of pumpkin hanging around so I decided to use it in place of some of the large quantity of oil that my zucchini bread recipes usually calls for.
The result was this delicious pumpkin zucchini bread!
I love pumpkin recipes year-round and am a firm believer that you shouldn’t have to wait until fall to enjoy some pumpkin goodness.
The bread turned out really moist and with a subtle cinnamon-pumpkin flavor.
I also didn’t feel too bad sharing it with my little girl since it is packed with veggies, has reduced sugar and has half the oil of regular zucchini bread.
This recipe makes two small loaves so you can share one (or keep both for yourself).
It’s also loaded with pumpkin – one full 15 ounce can goes into the loaves.
Pumpkin is a great source of vitamin A as well as several other vitamins. So go on and eat another slice. 😉
If you’ve got extra zucchini hanging around just grab your box grater and make some of this delicious bread.
Enjoy your easy pumpkin zucchini bread recipe!

I don’t love using oil. Could I sub 1/2c of butter instead?

How many ounces of pumpkin? If I have less than a can (like 3/4 of a can), should I replace that amount with something like oil?

Well a small can is 15 oz. So Yes, I think replacing what you don't have with some other liquid such as applesauce or oil would be totally fine.
