What a great idea to use freeze dried zucchini powder as a partial replacement for flour. I wonder what other vegetables might work. Your banana bread looked very tasty.
That’s amazing that you can substitute zucchini squash for flour. Florida panhandle girl here. Wonder if we can grow that squash up here 🤔 We don’t have a freeze dryer yet, but I’m amazed at all we will be able to do when we get one!
Wonderful idea! Thanks for sharing my fellow Floridain… yes, things definitely grow different in Florida and yes we do have a special place in our hearts (and our homes and our gardens and many other places) for our insects . 🌴😎🌴❤
Trading veggies for processed ingredients, how cool is that! And I love the simplicity of having a base recipe and then going in whatever direction your over abundance takes you. Thanks for sharing!
I’m in Florida also, thank you for sharing the kind of squash to grow and freeze dry here. The flour is awesome to sneak veggies to my teens. Thank you, have a blessed day!
My head is spinning with ideas! Zucchini (or other vegetable!) flour in breads, muffins, pancakes, waffles! All the things picky toddlers love with some extra nutrition hidden inside! Yum! Thank you so much for sharing!😊
Excellent idea to use in sweet breads. Adds additional nutrients and no one but the baker knows. I will also add powdered greens to soups, stew and beans. No one is the wiser. Thank you for this video. Thanks to Angela and the sponsors of this collaboration.
Wow, 36 pounds of Squash from just 1 plant?... and the cool thing is that it grows well in Florida. The freeze dryer sounds like a great way to store food long term, and making a flour out of it will save a lot of space too. And it looks like you can actually make a flour out of zucchini too... nice. Thanks for the video.
I never would have thought to use squash powder for flour. What an interesting and unique idea! I can imagine it would be amazing in a sweet bread, like a zucchini bread.
Pretty awesome way to use extra squash! Love that some of the flour can be replaced with a more healthy and nutritious option. Thank you for sharing the process and your recipe! 💚
Been searching for FDF. Forgot the hashtag. I'm glad I found this video, I always look for new ways to use my vegetables. The hubby isn't a fan of many vegetables. Thank you.
This is amazing. we love zucchini at our house and I am going to freeze dry some, turn it into flour and bake some bread. Thank you for being a part of #freezedriedfebruary. Have a blessed day.
I was thinking zucchini powder would be a great addition to soups. But I love that you shared your banana bread recipe using the zucchini flour. Looked amazing.
Oh wow looks delicious. I would never have thought to use zucchini as flour to add to baking. Zucchini bread made with zucchini flour oh my. Thank you!
What a cool way to use the abundance of zucchinis that we always seem to have for summer squash. Thank you for showing us this recipe. I'm going to give this a try.
Amazing how you can substitute all-purpose flour in recipes with freeze dried zucchini flour. Not only will it taste good, but it is a much healthier for you. Your banana bread looks delicious, and I appreciate the tips on exchanging different fruits/nuts & etc. but using the same main recipe. Thank you for participating in the Freeze Dried February 2024 Collaboration.
Great idea, I was given about 20 extra large zucchini a few summers ago that I freeze dried,sliced, diced and shredded . I now have another way to use it
I love how you use your Squash to make flour. I love the idea to cut up the bread in freeze in cubes for snacks, I was thinking it would make great Croutons for a salad either green or a fruit salad. Thank you for sharing.
I am loving the idea to be able to freeze dry any of your abundance of produce! I’m also gluten free so this would be interesting to tryin adding to my GF baking. Thanks for sharing!!
I’m in the northern hemisphere of the us. Only grow from June to Sept and I made the mistake of growing two zucchini plants. People really had to lock their doors. I shared with everyone
That looks FABULOUS! I have a can of Thrive Life zucchini that happened to have came in a bundle. Wasn’t sure WHAT to do with it…. have 1/2 dozen bananas in the freezer. Will use a couple of them up, along with powdering some of the zucchini chunks! Can’t wait for this one! 😊
I’ve learned recently that my Hashimotos is very closely linked to a gluten allergy. Learning about zucchini flour is going to really help me as I transition to non-gluten flours! Thanks for this idea!

Right?!
Never knew you could do this! So neat.
I wasn’t total sure when I started the video if it would work 🤣 but I was pleasantly surprised
@@HomegrownFloridaZ9alove it. Plus extra nutrients in the banana bread. We always have so much squash and courgettes.
I like the idea of getting some more nutrients into almost anything.
It’s perfect for that
I love banana nut bread. I actually us walnuts instead of pecans though.
I’ve done it with walnuts before and they are awesome too
Hi Petrina!! This is awesome! I love to hear about alternative flours and how to cook with them. Very creative idea I loved this! 😊❤

Texas southern gardening here. I can't wait to try that variety of squash. Love it can be freeze dried. The bannana bread looked yummy.
You will love it. It’s so prolific.
This reminds me of a squash cake my grandma used to make all the time. How I wish I could have another one of her cakes. Thanks for this video.
She sounds like a really good cook. I’m glad you enjoyed 💚
She really was.
So glad to “meet” a fellow weighed for doneness - it’s the only guarantee that it’s DRY!
I don’t trust touch only so weight has been working for me great!
never thought of making my own flour!
I don’t even like zucchini but I would totally do this!
You can’t even taste it. It just makes everything so moist. 💚
What a great idea! I will have to powder my zucchini that I have freeze dried!
Let me know what you think. I have so many ideas of how to use it going forward.
So glad I found this video. I'm learning how to garden in lower Alabama with the heat and humidity
