How to Make Microwave Zucchini Bread

  1. Preheat your microwave to high power.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together 2 large eggs and ¾ cup granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Add ½ cup vegetable oil and 2 cups grated zucchini (about 2 medium zucchini), stirring until well combined.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon, ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg, and ¼ teaspoon salt.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  6. Pour batter into a greased and floured 12-cup microwave-safe bundt pan, or two 6-cup microwave-safe ring molds.
  7. Microwave on high for 8-10 minutes, rotating the pan a quarter turn halfway through. Cooking time may vary depending on your microwave; check for doneness at 8 minutes.
  8. The bread is done when a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean and the bread pulls away from the sides of the pan.
  9. Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes before inverting it onto a serving plate.
  10. Serve warm or at room temperature. Enjoy!
