This recipe for Zucchini Bread comes from my childhood neighbors. She would make this bread and slice it for us kids. She gave us the recipe and my mom would make it every summer.
Zucchini is easy to grow in the garden and is one that will produce more than enough zucchini for a family with just two plants. When I have an abundance of zucchini, I peel the zucchini and shred it and place enough shredded zucchini in a frozen storage bag for one recipe of bread. Make sure to squeeze out any excess moisture prior to placing the zucchini in a bag.
I love this recipe because the Zucchini bread comes out moist and sticky. It is very tasty and even better warm with butter melted on it. My kids like to warm it up in the microwave with a little butter on top and then eat it with a fork.
For added flavor, add in a cup of mini chocolate chips or a cup of chopped walnuts.
This Zucchini bread does not last long! Within a day it is eaten! Make a double batch and store one in the freezer until ready to eat it.
