Try My Delicious AND Easy To Make 5-Star Zucchini Bread

Posted August 16, 2022 by Prairie Wife -

Tis the season for Zucchini…and Zucchini Bread!

And while I love this prolific vegetable, it can be hard to think of ways to use it up.

I have a Baked Ravioli with Fall Vegetables recipe that’s pretty popular in my house, but my Zucchini Bread recipe is by far the family favorite.

I use either fresh or frozen zucchini for this recipe and use my tabletop blender to shred it.

At the end of my recipe, I’ve listed a few ingredients you can add to switch it up a bit, but make sure if you use nuts, you let anyone you share your bread with know just in case they have a nut allergy.
