Step-by-Step Instructions for Zucchini Coffee Cake
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease an 8- or 9-inch baking pan.
- Finely shred one medium zucchini using a box grater or food processor and squeeze out excess liquid.
- In a medium bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. Whisk thoroughly.
- In a larger bowl, blend the granulated sugar, vegetable oil, and egg until smooth. Gradually stir in the milk.
- Slowly add the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, stirring gently. Fold in the squeezed zucchini.
- In a small bowl, combine brown sugar, flour, cinnamon, and melted butter to create the crumb topping.
- Pour the cake batter into the prepared pan, sprinkle the crumb topping generously, and bake for 30-35 minutes.
- Let the cake cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes
Avoid overmixing the batter for a light cake. Customizing with nuts or chocolate chips can add enjoyable texture.
