Ingredients

  • 1/3 cup Almondmilk
  • 1 1/4 cups granulated sugar
  • 6 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 eggs
  • 1-2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon almond extract
  • 2 cups cake flour
  • 1 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 1/2 cups zucchini
  • 2 tablespoons lemon zest
  • 1 cup powdered sugar

Directions

Step 1
Preheat oven to 350F. Spray a loaf pan with baking spray and line with parchment paper. Set aside.

Step 2
Combine flour, baking powder, and salt in a medium bowl and whisk together. Set aside. In a large bowl, combine the sugar and olive and oil. Whisk to combine. Add eggs and Almond Breeze Vanilla Almondmilk and whisk together. Add lemon juice and vanilla extract and stir to combine. Add flour mixture and stir just until incorporated. Fold in zucchini and lemon zest.

Step 3
Pour batter into the prepared pan and bake for 45 to 55 minutes or until an inserted toothpick comes out with moist crumbs. The top of the cake should look dry.

Step 4
Place the loaf on a cooling rack and cool for 15 minutes. Use the parchment paper to carefully lift the cake from the pan. Let cool completely on rack.

Step 5
In a small bowl, combine powdered sugar and lemon juice. Whisk until smooth. Drizzle the glaze over the cake. Slice and serve.
