Well--it is that time of year again when zucchinis are plentiful! The one zucchini plant in my garden died this year, but I figured between my sisters, Mom and nieghbors I am sure to get plenty. My neighbor's cute little daughter brought me over 2 yesterday! I was so excited to get the first ones of the season that I whipped up my favorite zucchini bread recipe. I shared some with my neighbor and then my boys gobbled the rest up! It was GREAT!! This is our all time favorite recipe! The crust is sweet and crunchy and the center is soft and chewy! Perfectly wonderful! It also freezes really well. So anyone with extra zucchini, send them my way!!

ReplyDeleteIf I lived closer, I would definitely share some zucchini! I'm trying several zucchini bread recipes and freezing them . . . I'm definitely adding this one to my list!
ReplyDeleteLooks yummy! I need to bake some zucchini bread, I actually haven't made any this summer.
ReplyDeleteI have been trying to bake quick breads for years, but I fail every time. My bread always sinks in the middle and won't rise at all!!! Any suggestions??
ReplyDeleteOh yummy! My neighbors dropped off some zukes a few weeks ago and I did the same thing. Yours looks perfectly moist.
ReplyDeleteI was having the same problem with quick breads sinking in the middle. Then in shopping for new bread pans, and reading the feedback on amazon, I realized it was my cheap pans. I have now replaced my bread pans (I bought Chicago Metallic Gourmetware) and finally had a great batch of zucchini bread turn out! I made the recipe posted by Mindy and it was awesome! I need to try this one now. Good luck with the pan search!
