1 large zucchini
210 grams All-Purpose Gluten-Free Flour Mix, recipe follows
1 teaspoon psyllium husk
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon cardamom
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 egg
1/2 cup white sugar
1/3 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup olive oil
1/4 cup Greek yogurt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
All-Purpose Gluten-Free Flour Mix:
400 grams millet flour
300 grams sweet rice flour
300 grams potato starch
1Preparing to bake: Heat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 9- by 4-inch loaf pan.
2Grating the zucchini: Grate the zucchini into a bowl. Put it in a double layer of paper towels. Squeeze the water out of the zucchini into the sink. This will help the zucchini bread to not be too wet. Set aside about 225 grams (or about 2 cups) of the drained zucchini.
3Combining the dry ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the flour mix, psyllium, baking powder, soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, cardamom, and salt.
4Combining the wet ingredients: Whisk together the egg, sugars, olive oil, yogurt, and vanilla extract.
5Finishing the batter: Plop the drained zucchini into the liquids and whisk them together. Sprinkle the dry ingredients over the top of the liquids. Using a rubber spatula, fold the dry ingredients into the wet until no sign of flours remain.
6Pour the batter into the prepared pan. Slide the pan into the oven and bake until the top of the bread is crackly brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out dry, 45 to 55 minutes.
7Allow the bread to cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Turn it onto a cooling rack and let it cool to room temperature before slicing into it.
All-Purpose Gluten-Free Flour Mix:
8Pour all the flours into a large container. (Restaurant supply stores sell large plastic containers that fit this purpose well. You could also use a large glass jar.) Shake and shake and shake harder until all the flours have become one color.

By the end of the summer, we're all overloaded with zucchini. We've sauteed it, made it into fritters, used it as pasta noodles, and tried to give it to our neighbors. But they've been growing zucchini too. What to do with all that zucchini? Make some of this zucchini bread, of course. It's spiced with cinnamon, nutmeg, and cardamom, slightly sweet, and super moist. Best of all, it doesn't taste of zucchini at all. Pick another zucchini out of the garden.
