We got our first zucchini out of the garden last week and you would have thought I won the lottery I was so excited. It kind of snuck up on me, hidden behind one of the tomato plants and man, when I found that baby, it was awesome!

I immediately starting thinking of all sorts of zucchini recipes I wanted to make but landed on this one – a gorgeous Zucchini Bundt Cake with Orange Glaze.

There is something about zucchini recipes that make me happy. It’s amazing how a simple vegetable can be so versatile. Brownies, cakes, cookies, bread, quiche – I think zucchini goes with everything 🙂

The extra moisture that the zucchini provides to this cake is outstanding. This may be the most perfectly moist cake I’ve ever tried.

I love how delicate this cake is despite the incredible mositure. It feels like a true delicacy.

The fresh orange juice and orange zest really brighten up this beautiful bundt cake. I love seeing the specks of orange throughout the cake as well as the glaze – little bits of bright, fresh flavor.

This cake disappeared far too fast and we are now all eagerly awaiting our next zucchini – fresh from the garden!

Ingredients

  • 3 cups zucchini grated
  • 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour plus extra for bundt pan
  • 2 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon
  • 3 large eggs room temperature
  • 1 1/4 cups granulated sugar
  • 12 tbsp butter melted and cooled slightly
  • 1 tbsp orange zest
  • 2 tbsp fresh orange juice

Orange Glaze

  • 1 cup powdered sugar sifted
  • 1 tsp orange zest
  • 3 tbsp fresh orange juice

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
  • Grate zucchini and then squeeze dry in a kitchen towel to remove excess water. Measure out three cups.
  • Grease a 6-cup bundt pan and lightly flour. (Make sure to tap out excess flour.)
  • Whisk together flour, baking powder, and cinnamon. Set aside.
  • Stir together eggs and sugar. Gradually mix in melted butter, zucchini, orange zest and juice.
  • Stir in flour mixture just until combined. Pour into prepared pan.
  • Bake 55-65 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the cake comes out clean.
  • Let cake cool on a wire rack for 10-15 minutes before inverting the cake pan and turning it out onto a wire rack. Let cool for an additional 30 minutes before glazing.

Orange Glaze

  • Whisk glaze ingredients together and drizzle over slightly cooled cake. If glaze is too thick, add more orange juice. If it is too thin, whisk in more sugar.

    Wow how fun is this cake! I am sending it to my dad! He ends up with SO many zucchinis that he makes about 50 loaves of bread, no joke. He sends me a box from his garden every summer! Love love love.

    Hi:

    This looks quite yummy but I am wondering about the 2 listings for different amounts of orange juice in the glaze. Is one supposed to be in the cake?

    Reply
    • Trish - Mom On Timeout says

      June 12, 2014 at 6:26 PM

      Hi Kit! The 2 Tbls is for the cake and the 3 Tbls is for the glaze! Thank you!!

        Hi Trish: Thanks for answering so quickly. I want to make sure I get this recipe right before I make it cause it looks so beautiful. I also think the butter listed in the glaze ingredients probably belongs in the cake.
