Cake Aux Courgettes Aux Pignons - Zucchini Bread With Pine Nuts

"These savory 'cakes' are popular in France and in Canada. They freezes well and wrapped in aluminum foil will keep for several days in the fridge. I found this recipe on a website - Pronounced: cake / oh / koor zhet / oh / pee no(n) - and I have posted it here for the 2005 Zaar World Tour. Serve this as an appetizer, or for breakfast or brunch, or as a dessert."

  1. Easy to make, and smells good baking. I made as posted, and it turned out great. It is not as sweet as other zucchini bread that I have made in the past, but it is just as moist. Really great for breakfast. I made this for Newest Zaar Tag.

July 2008 update: VERY happy to be back on Zaar after about a two year absence due to having had no internet connection at home, and having been too unwell for a time so that getting re-connected wasn't even a priority! <br> <br>And really looking forward to getting back into the Zaar world and connecting again with the many wonderful people I knew before, and new people, of course!
