This pumpkin zucchini bread is the perfect marriage of classic pumpkin bread and zucchini bread. Zucchini helps keep the bread tender and moist, while canned pumpkin gives it an orange hue that carries the flavor of pumpkin pie spice for a touch of fall.

Ingredients

½ cup unseasoned pumpkin puree
½ cup canola oil
½ cup granulated sugar
2 large eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 ¾ cups packed grated zucchini
1 cup all-purpose flour
¾ cup whole-wheat pastry flour
1 tablespoon pumpkin pie spice
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
Chopped pecans or pepitas (optional)

Directions

Preheat oven to 350°F. Coat a 9-by-5-inch loaf pan with cooking spray.
Whisk pumpkin, oil, sugar, eggs and vanilla together in a medium bowl. Fold in zucchini. Fold in all-purpose flour, pastry flour, pumpkin pie spice, baking soda, baking powder and salt just until combined.
Pour the batter into the prepared pan. Sprinkle with pecans (or pepitas), if desired. Bake until a wooden pick inserted in the center comes out clean, 1 hour to 1 hour 10 minutes. Let cool in the pan on a wire rack for 10 minutes. Run a knife along the edges of the pan to remove the loaf; place on the rack to cool completely, about 1 hour.

To make ahead

Store airtight at room temperature for up to 2 days or freeze for up to 3 months.

Nutrition information is calculated by a registered dietitian using an ingredient database but should be considered an estimate.

* Daily Values (DVs) are the recommended amounts of nutrients to consume each day. Percent Daily Value (%DV) found on nutrition labels tells you how much a serving of a particular food or recipe contributes to each of those total recommended amounts. Per the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the daily value is based on a standard 2,000 calorie diet. Depending on your calorie needs or if you have a health condition, you may need more or less of particular nutrients. (For example, it’s recommended that people following a heart-healthy diet eat less sodium on a daily basis compared to those following a standard diet.)
