Zucchini Bread With Walnut Crumble Topping – Eggless

I have no idea why I have never baked zucchini bread before. It would be an understatement if I said that this Zucchini Bread with Walnut Crumble Topping was one of the moistest quick bread I have baked. It was just wonderful bread and it needs no words beyond this.

My oldest one has been asking me to make coffee cake for a while now as he loves the crumble topping in the coffee cake. Since this week is all about bread, I wanted to bake a quick bread for the category and that is when I thought why not make the Zucchini Bread with Walnut Crumble Topping?

I was initially thinking of making zucchini walnut bread, but then just the brown sugar crumble sounded boring, so I thought I would skip the walnut in the bread and use it for the crumble topping.

That is by far the best thing I have put in bread. The bread was super soft and the walnut crumble topping gave the bread the much-needed texture.

I used Greek yogurt in the bread and that compensated for the eggs. This is one of the breads that disappeared within a day, showing that everyone in the house just loved it.
