Ingredients:

For the Zucchini Bread:

2 cups grated zucchini, drained

1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

1/2 cup almond flour

1 teaspoon baking powder

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg

1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted

1/2 cup granulated sugar

1/2 cup brown sugar, packed

2 large eggs

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt

For the Orange Glaze:

1 cup powdered sugar

Zest of one orange

2-3 tablespoons fresh orange juice

Instructions:

1. Preheat and Prepare:

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a standard loaf pan.

2. Grate and Drain Zucchini:

Grate the zucchini and place it in a fine-mesh sieve. Squeeze out excess moisture from the zucchini.

3. Mix Dry Ingredients:

In a large bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, almond flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg.

4. Mix Wet Ingredients:

In another bowl, whisk together melted butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar, eggs, vanilla extract, and Greek yogurt until well combined.

5. Combine Wet and Dry:

Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and gently fold until just combined. Do not overmix.

Fold in the grated and drained zucchini.

6. Bake:

Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan. Bake for 50-60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Allow the zucchini bread to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.

7. Make the Orange Glaze:

In a bowl, whisk together powdered sugar, orange zest, and enough fresh orange juice to achieve a pourable consistency.

8. Glaze the Zucchini Bread:

Once the zucchini bread has cooled, drizzle the orange glaze over the top.

9. Serve:

Slice and serve the Michelin-star Zucchini Bread at room temperature.

Optional Tips:

Add a handful of chocolate chips, chopped nuts, or dried fruits to the batter for added texture.

For an extra touch of elegance, garnish the glazed zucchini bread with edible flowers or a sprinkle of finely chopped pistachios.
