This is a great recipe, truly a great way to use zucchini!
Grating the zucchini gives the bread an overall zucchini flavor. You get the flavor, but no actual chunks of zucchini.
The lemon zest is the amazing ingredient! You get just a hint of lemon with every bite. It is wonderful!
The recipe makes two loaves, so my husband took a loaf to work. He said it was gone within an hour.
With butter or without this is a great breakfast bread!
