2/3 cup olive oil (143 grams), plus more for the pan
1 1/3 cups white whole-wheat flour (170 grams), plus more for the pan
2 1/3 cups grated zucchini (from about 11 ounces zucchini)
1/3 cup sugar (67 grams)
1/3 cup brown sugar (71 grams)
2 large eggs
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
2/3 cup walnuts (75 grams)
1/3 cup golden raisins (53 grams)
1/3 cup oats (33 grams), plus more for topping

1
Preheat the oven to 350u00b0 F. Grease a 8 1/2- by 4 1/2-inch loaf pan with some oil. Add some flour and tap around to distribute evenly. Gather the zucchini in a kitchen linen or paper towel and squeeze over the sink to get rid of any excess moisture.
2
Combine the sugars, eggs, and oil in a large bowl. Whisk until smooth. Add the zucchini to the bowl and use a rubber spatula to combine. Add the baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Stir to combine. Add the flour, walnuts, raisins, and oats. Stir to combine.
3
Pour the batter into prepared pan. Sprinkle oats on top. Bake for about 1 hour until a thin knife inserted in the center comes out clean. Let cool in the pan for 15 or so minutes before turning onto a wire rack. Cool completely before slicing and serving.

Tips for the best results

Read through all the steps once before you start and measure out your ingredients first — it makes everything go more smoothly.
Preheat the oven fully and bake on the middle rack for the most even results.
Check for doneness a few minutes early — a toothpick in the center should come out with just a few moist crumbs.
Let it cool before slicing so it sets properly and holds its shape.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy within a few days.

Variations & substitutions

Brown sugar instead of white sugar adds a deeper, more caramel-like flavor.
Leave out the nuts to make it nut-free, or swap in seeds for a similar crunch.
A good 1:1 gluten-free flour blend works well if you need a gluten-free version.
