Sous Vide Zucchini Bread

Ingredients for 8

• 12 ounces zucchini, grated

• 1/2 cup (118 ml) packed dark brown sugar

• 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil or vegetable oil

• 1 large egg

• 1/2 (2.5 ml) teaspoon vanilla extract

• 3/4 (177 ml) cup all-purpose flour

• 1/4 cup (59 ml) whole wheat flour

• 1 1/2 teaspoons (7.4 ml) ground cinnamon

• 3/4 teaspoon (3.7 ml) salt

• 1/2 teaspoon (2.5 ml) baking powder

• 1/2 teaspoon (2.5 ml) baking soda

Directions

• 

  Step 1

  Set the Anova Sous Vide Precision Cooker to 195ºF (90.5ºC). Generously grease 4 half-pint canning jars with non-stick oil spray or butter.

• 

  Step 2

  Place the zucchini in the center of a clean kitchen towel. Bring the ends of the towel together and squeeze tightly over the skin to drain as much water as possible.

• 

  Step 3

  In a medium bowl, whisk together the sugar, oil, egg, and vanilla. Stir in zucchini.

• Step 4

  In a second medium bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour, cinnamon, salt, baking powder, and baking soda. Fold zucchini mixture into flour mixture until just incorporated.

• 

  Step 5

  Divide the batter between the prepared jars. Each jar should be no more than half full. Wipe off sides and tops of jars using a damp towel. Firmly tap jars on the counter to remove air bubbles. Place lids and bands on jars and seal until just tight (do not over-tighten jars; air will still need to escape).

• 

  Step 6

  Place the jars in the water bath and set the timer for 3 hours.

• Finishing Steps

  Step 0

  When the timer goes off, remove the jars from the water bath and transfer to a cooling rack. Carefully remove the lids. Let the bread cool to room temperature in the jars before running a knife around the sides of the jars to un-mold the bread. Slice and serve.
