This bread is excellent! I followed the recipe exactly and it made two delicious medium sized loaves. One to keep and one to share...maybe :-)

I love this bread - it is moist and flavorful and very easy to make. I did cut back the sugar by 1/2 cup and could even do with a wee bit less for my tastes. I used all the spices and like the combination very much - did not peel my zucchini - added chopped toasted pecans. I am going to whip up another couple of batches to have some for the freezer and to give to friends. Thanks so much for sharing this recipe.

This zucchini bread is fabulous. I have made it twice this week and have received rave reviews from family and friends, including my four year old son. This bread freezes very well. I find that I do have to bake it for quite a while. I am using four smaller bread pans (not quite mini I guess) and it is taking about 50 minutes to get the bread completely done.
