The weather in the Bay Area is finally warming up! I am totally at my happiest when I can jump on my chartreuse classic cruiser with my oversized basket and ride to the Campbell farmer’s market to saunter through and select all my favorite fruits and veggies for the week. One of the things I picked up was zucchini and this morning before work I hand-grated a few to whip up a quick zucchini bread using my go-to, never fail banana bread recipe. I brought this loaf to work this morning, snapped a quick photo so I can share it with you – and by the time I went to post, the zucchini bread was gone! In other words, your friends and family will definitely enjoy it!

I have always wanted to make a Zucchini based treat as it seems so very popular but ive never actually tried anything baked with zucchini so was just wondering how you would describe it if you could…does it have quite a strong taste or is it more the texture it gives the bread?
Thank you and sorry for the silly question!
Hi Sasha. I love the name of your blog by the way! This zucchini bread has a more cakey texture than a bread-like texture. As far as the taste, the flavor from the zucchini is very subtle, and it works really well as a loaf bread. The feedback I got from my colleagues was that it was very tasty and had a “light” texture. Your question wasn’t silly at all and I think I wondered that myself until I made it myself. Hope that helps.
