This is by far my favorite zucchini bread recipe.
Super moist and full of flavor.
Try it warmed in the microwave with butter and you pretty much have heaven on a plate.
Each recipe uses one medium-sized zucchini so it is perfect if you are overrun with zukes this garden season!
Also, this bread freezes wonderfully.
I usually make about 20 loaves. We had our last loaves in May of this year and it tasted just as good as when it was fresh.
So fill those freezers up my peeps!
Bonus tip: I have a crazy cool tip for you! If you have made this recipe you will find that slicing can be a bit tricky. The moistness of the bread causes the slices to break apart a bit. I found that if you freeze the bread and slice it WHILE It is still frozen will give you perfect slices every single time!
Freeze your bread, slice it while it is still frozen for perfect slices. Then place back in the freezer pulling out the slices as you need them. This bread will keep well for up to 9+ months.
Store in an airtight container in your refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
Bonus tip: Slice bread and top with ice cream and hot fudge for the perfect summertime dessert!

This delicious double-chocolate zucchini bread not only uses up extra zucchinis from your garden, but the bread is super moist and tastes like brownies.

This looks fantastic! We have more zucchini than we can use this year (on that note, recipes for summer squash, spaghetti squash, and butternut squash would also be welcome lol). I’m gonna try this with almond flour instead of flour flour (for gluten free hubby). I’ll letcha know if it turns out that way!
Please do Carly! I would love to hear how it turns out. I forgot to mention that this bread freezes great, just double wrap and you are good to go!
