What to do with that Zucchini?

2009 July 24

If you’ve been blessed with an overabundance of zucchini from your garden, farmers market or otherwise green-thumbed friend, put it to good use and bake it up into something sweet! The idea of zucchini invading my sweet treats never seemed to do much for me, that is until I actually tried it. Because really, no matter what vegetable it is – carrot, zucchini, beet (ok, a stretch), sweet potato – once you add lots of sugar, cinnamon, vanilla and a touch of fat, how could it not be delicious?

So, go ahead. Take your ordinary zucchini…
The Big One

and turn it into extraordinarily sweet bread!

      Although this isn’t the recipe I used out at the ranch, I still think about you every time I go to make anything with zucchini! Heck, you were the one that got me to try it out and start making them in the first place. Miss those days…
      Thanks for dropping by!
