One Perfectly Yummy Zucchini Bread

Submitted by AndreaVT96

"Sweet, but not too sweet--I think even those who don't like zucchini would go for this one. This recipe turned out moist and yummy. You can leave out the walnuts, if you wish. We included them and liked them in the recipe. This recipe came out of a desire to use up an abundance of zucchini a co-worker gave my husband."
