I used 2 c white flour and 1 cup whole wheat flour, and reduced the sugar to 1 cup. I squeezed the juice of the orange into the batter as well. I baked as muffins instead of loafs. The kids loved them!

What a great way to use the garden zucchini this season. This bread is adored by all. I omitted the nuts the second time I made it. Great with or without!

I was a little worried about using orange peel in this recipe because my kids are a bit picky about mixing certain flavors together buit it turned out great & they all loved it. I used dried orange peel that I ground up, milk cocolate chips, & cashews.
