My grandmother made this bread for as long as I can remember, and I've been making it ever since I learned how to bake. Children love it for a snack, and it's good to serve at any meal. It's another delicious way to use zucchini, which is so abundant in late summer.

I made this last week and it was a hit. I only inluded 1 cup of sugar and added 2oz of baking chocolate and everyone loved. Very moist. I just made a second batch right now and sub'd 1cup of quick oats, i cup brown sugar, 1cup apple sauce instead of oil. Overall it is good and moist, but not as sweet as the loaves I made last week. This will be my go to recipe for breakfast breads.

This is the best! I made both muffins and a loaf pan and sprinkled cinnamon and sugar on top before I cooked them. Also super moist, not a bit dry.

I was amazed at how well the taste is and will make more. Did anyone have to go over the 50 minutes?

This is the best recipe and I think it is better than zucchini-pineapple bread.

Super tasty! I made with extra zucchini...no one notices. It just didn't slice well...
