Grandma gave me her recipe card in 1990 ... a recipe cut of some newspaper years before. It was yellowed when she gave it to me 14 yrs ago. This is quick and delicious! If my kids new there was a vegetable in it would they be surprised!!

Tips:

  • Choose Fresh Zucchini: For the best flavor and texture, use fresh, firm zucchini. Avoid ones that are too large or have blemishes.
  • Grate the Zucchini Finely: Grating the zucchini finely helps it incorporate evenly into the batter and results in a smoother, more moist bread.
  • Don't Overmix the Batter: Overmixing the batter can make the bread tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Use a Loaf Pan with a Non-Stick Coating: This will help prevent the bread from sticking and make it easier to remove from the pan.
  • Let the Bread Cool Completely Before Slicing: This will help prevent the bread from crumbling.

Conclusion:

Grandma's Zucchini Bread is a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. With its moist texture, sweet flavor, and nutty crunch from the walnuts, this bread is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it. So next time you have an abundance of zucchini, give this recipe a try!
