Anyone with a garden knows how prolific zucchini are. Before you can say “grow,” that small plant has yielded armfuls of squash. While zucchini<\/a> does make a yummy side dish, we think it’s at its most delicious when baked into bread. With a bit of sugar, spices and even nuts, this abundant summer veggie becomes a treat to savor: zucchini bread.<\/p>\n

Adding chopped walnuts or pecans gives the bread a more interesting texture, but you can leave them out if you’re baking for someone with nut allergies.<\/p>\n

What is zucchini bread?<\/h2>\n

Zucchini bread is a type of quick bread<\/a>. Despite being made with a vegetable, zucchini bread is sweet. The grated zucchini softens as it cooks, leaving the peel’s green flecks as the only evidence of its presence. Grated zucchini also adds moisture. The addition of warming spices like cinnamon, bright citrus zest and crunchy nuts give zucchini bread a complex flavor that’s hard to beat.<\/p>\n
