No-Fail Country Zucchini Bread
Zucchini bread is a family favorite for a reason. It is a moist cake quick bread that is lightly spiced with cinnamon. If you have a good recipe for it, you use the same one for years and years. Well, this is one of those recipes. It works every time! We like to add nuts and use zucchini that is really fresh and shred fine. You can add chocolate chips to this recipe as well. This recipe makes 2 loaves, so there's plenty to feed a group, or one teenage Texas farmer!
