In a large bowl, add the grated courgette, vegetable oil, eggs, Greek yogurt, agave nectar, and vanilla extract. Whisk until well combined.

Combine all the dry ingredients: all-purpose flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, ground cinnamon, and ground nutmeg.

Mix dry ingredients into wet ingredients until well-incorporated. Do not over-mix. Gently stir in the chopped walnuts.
