Vegan Cinnamon Streusel Zucchini Mini Loaves

Everyone has that one recipe that just makes them feel comforted. For me, coffee cake will always have such positive memories surrounding it. Why? Well, I grew up eating it. My mom would always buy one for me while she was grabbing her coffee from Starbucks and the obsession stuck! Unfortunately, those little guys are FULL of ingredients I try to stay away from.

Enter these Vegan Cinnamon Streusel Zucchini Mini Loaves (yes, that is a mouthful!). I really wanted to create something that reminded me of the classic but with a healthier spin. These completely fit the bill! I know exactly what is in them, no funky ingredients here! Plus, they are perfectly portioned in mini loaves so I don’t feel one ounce of guilt eating one or two. Or three, four or five either.

Let’s be honest, there shouldn’t be any food guilt anyway. YOU DO YOU!
