BEST ZUCCHINI BREAD

Each summer, when the zucchini comes in, this is the first recipe we make, and it has great reviews too.

Why This Zucchini Bread is The Best

We have tried a few different versions and always come back to this one; it is by far the best, and many of you agree. The comments alone show it’s a winner, and we love hearing how much all of you love this recipe. Each summer when the zucchini comes in this is the first recipe we make; it’s great with butter and a cup of coffee.

Swaps and Additions

You can add in chocolate chips if you like, we suggest adding 3/4 cup if you want to add them. You can also switch out the nuts for pecans or leave them out altogether, but we are big fans of both and usually just use what we have on hand. This makes two loaves so you can switch it up, make one with chocolate chips and one without.

Do You Add Butter?

Yes, we love our zucchini bread served with butter! If you haven’t tried a piece of zucchini bread, slathered in butter, you are missing out! It’s delicious and a great way to serve it. Some people prefer to toast it, we think it’s great either way.
