Instructions
Instructions
- Heat the oven to 350°F. Grease a 9-by-5-inch loaf pan and line it with parchment, leaving an overhang for lifting.
- Whisk the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon in a medium bowl.
- In a large bowl, whisk the granulated sugar, brown sugar, oil, eggs, and vanilla until smooth.
- Stir the dry ingredients into the wet mixture just until no dry streaks remain. Fold in the zucchini and diced apple without overmixing.
- Scrape the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top.
- For the crumb topping, rub the flour, brown sugar, and cold butter together with your fingertips until coarse crumbs form. Scatter them evenly over the batter.
- Bake for 50 to 60 minutes, until a skewer inserted in the center comes out with only a few moist crumbs. Cool in the pan for 15 minutes, then transfer to a rack to cool completely.
