Thank you for blessing us with this creative recipe!!
Have made this twice in one week, brought it to a BBQ and it was a big hit! I love the orange and zucchini combination, plus how healthy this feels compared to other bread / cakes. The second time I made it, I used a few modifications: replaced yogurt with 2 oz of cashew milk (no gums/additives) to make it vegan and added a splash more of orange juice. I reduced the sweetener (I used maple syrup instead of honey) to 1/4 cup. I skipped the frosting and instead just did a “glaze” by mixing a few splashes of the fresh orange juice and maple syrup and then brushed the top of the cake with a light layer of this 5-10 min after taking it out and letting it cool a bit. Can’t wait to make it again soon!

It was my first time making this and it was amazing!! I used non-fat greek yogurt and swapped the frosting for a vegan chocolate ganache with orange zest on top and it was delicious! I will definitely be making this over and over again! 🙂

In reply to Sloane P. So glad you enjoyed! The frosting should look like the photos and add a nice layer to the top, but yes, feel free to double if you want more!

Absolutely delicious gf treat! Simple ingredients and easy to make. Double the icing if you want to cover the sides of the cake. The recipe makes just enough for a light glaze on top.

What a delicious (and healthy) recipe! I made this cake as muffins (without the frosting) for more of a snack option during the week. I baked them at 350 for 22 minutes (and the recipe yielded 12 large muffins). I also added ½ tsp cinnamon and ¼ tsp ginger because I used vanilla Siggi’s yogurt and wanted to add a bit of that spiced component. Definitely adding this one to the rotation. Thanks Monique and team!

In reply to dancetolivestudio.paula@gmail.com. Yes, plant based yogurt will work! Then I suggest using vegan butter to get the right consistency.

This looks scrumpalicious! Can’t wait to try it! If I wanted to make the cake dairy (milk product) free, do you recommend that I could I use a plant based yogurt instead? And for the icing, could I use coconut oi? Thanks for your feedback Monique, can’t wait to try it!

Hi. I made this recipe for some friends and they loved it. However, I did add some cream cheese to the frosting. Yum! I am not a fan of orange, so I would assume any citrus flavor would be worth trying? Do you think lemon, lime, or grapefruit would be good substitutes for orange?
