Directions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x5 inch loaf pan with butter or cooking spray, then dust lightly with flour.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, ground cinnamon, baking soda, salt, and ground nutmeg.
- In a separate medium bowl, mix the granulated sugar and vegetable oil. Add in the eggs and vanilla extract, whisk until smooth.
- Gently fold the wet mixture into the dry ingredients, then add the grated zucchini and fold in the nuts if using.
- In a small bowl, mix the flour, brown sugar, granulated sugar, and ground cinnamon for the streusel topping. Cut in the cold butter until coarse crumbs form.
- Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, spread evenly, and sprinkle the streusel topping generously over the batter.
- Bake for 50-60 minutes or until a skewer comes out clean. If browning too quickly, tent with foil.
- Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.

Notes
Ensure you squeeze out excess moisture from the grated zucchini and avoid overmixing the batter to maintain a tender crumb.
