Hi Scuba- there are so many great recipes out there for dairy free baking!

You mentioned zucchini bread.
This is a Beth Kidder recipe:

1.5 cups grated Zucchini (about 0.5 lb)
2 cups flour
1 cup sugar (I would use less)
1 TSP baking powder
0.5 tsp cinnamon
0.5 tsp salt
2 eggs
0.5 cup olive oil
0.5 cup water
0.5 TSP vanilla

Scrub and coarsely grate zucchini. Preheat oven to 350 and grease (non-dairy margarine or spray) a 9x5 incl loaf pan.
SIft dry ingredients into a large bowl and add zucchini.
In another bowl mix eggs, oil, water and vanilla and add all at one to dry ingredients. Stir just until all dry ingredients are moistened. Turn into prepared pan.
Bake 1 to 1.25 hours. Cool in pan.

She also has a recipe for cranberry bread, which is similar but uses orange juice and zest instead of water, only one egg, and has more baking powder. (It also has nuts)

Here is another basic one to get you going!

Muffins (12 x 2.5 inch muffins)

2 cups flour
0.25 cup sugar (I use less, but that's me...)
1 TBSP baking powder
0.5 TSP salt
6 TBSP oil (I would use coconut fat or, for nut free I would use olive oil as I don't trust highlighly processed seed oils)
0.75 cup water
2 eggs


Preheat oven to 375 and grease muffin pan with non-dairy shortening or spray.
Sift flour, sugar, baking powder and salt into bowl. Make well in centre.
In another bowl, mix oil, water and eggs together (they won't really blend- just jiggle them around and do your best and all will be well!)
Pour the wet mix into the dry mix and stir just until all the flour is moistened.
Spoon mix into muffin pan.
Bake 15 to 20 minutes.

You can add whatever fruit, spices or flavourings you like to this basic recipe.

Hope you like it!
