Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease two 4½” x 8½” loaf pans with coconut oil or non-stick spray.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine melted coconut oil, eggs, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract. Whisk until smooth.
  3. In another bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, cinnamon, baking soda, cream of tartar, and salt thoroughly until no lumps remain.
  4. Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet ingredients, stirring gently until just combined.
  5. Fold in grated zucchini until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
  6. In a small bowl, mix granulated sugar, cinnamon, and cream of tartar for the topping.
  7. Fill each greased loaf pan halfway with batter and sprinkle 2 tablespoons of the topping mixture over it. Add remaining batter and top with the rest of the topping.
  8. Bake for 45 to 50 minutes, checking for doneness by inserting a toothpick in the center.
  9. Allow the loaves to cool in the pans for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
