Care Package Zucchini Bread

Submitted by sofie-a-toast

"When I was in college, one of my best friend's moms used to send this zucchini bread to her in a care package at least once a semester. It quickly became a favorite! I know there are a lot of zucchini bread recipes out there but what I love about this one is the healthy addition of bran, the zing of the orange and that it isn't too sweet."
