Trisha W's Note:

I have had this recipe so many years that I don't remember who gave it to me. We enjoy it very much, and the kids would eat squash this way when they wouldn't touch it in other ways.

I have been making this recipe for years with one difference, 3 tsp. of cinnamon! It is a fabulous recipe and I am frequently asked to share the recipe. Thanks for posting, I'll send those who want the recipe to this site and your recipe from now on!!!

This was a great base recipe for zucchini bread. The texture was wonderful, moistness delightful, the only thing lacking was flavor. I think this needs more than just some cinnamon in it to make that 5 star.

I have made this several times and it is always wonderful. It is good to add chocolate too. I have even made it with yellow squash and it was good.
