WHOLE-GRAIN ZUCCHINI BANANA BREAD

Whole-Grain Zucchini Banana Bread image

This is adapted from a recipe I found in a pregnancy book. It is WONDERFUL! It's good hot, cold or room temperature. It's good plain or with butter. The original recipe doesn't use any sugar but I didn't think I'd like it without it.

This is a great recipe! I've made it several times and it always turns out perfectly. It's a great way to use up leftover zucchini and bananas.

Not my favorite. I found it to be too dry and bland.

I'm not usually a fan of zucchini bread, but this recipe changed my mind! It's so moist and flavorful, and the addition of banana makes it even better.

Just made this bread and it's incredible. The zucchini makes it so moist and the banana adds a lovely sweetness. Will definitely be making this again.
