I made this with an extreme large zucchini a neighbor brought over. I followed the directions exactly. I did grate the zuke but not drain it in any way. It turned out wonderful. I did not need the full hour to cook. It was done in about 45 minutes. One loaf I left alone, the second pan before baking, I swirled in some milk chocolate chips. Both turned out fabulous. The sweetness is very light and subtle.

This is my new FAVORITE Zucchini Bread recipe for the summer. Here is the thing; I picked it because it used THREE cups of Zucchini instead of the usual 2 that most call for. When I have Zucchini rolling in from the garden, I like recipes that use the maximum amount. FIRST I made it as stated with no changes. GREAT basic recipe, moist with just the right amount of sweetness! Repeat batches made I substituted 1/2 cup buckwheat flour for 1/2 cup regular flour, added extra cinnamon, added nutmeg & clove, chopped dried fruit and nuts. Turned out awesome EVERY time. Didn%u2019t matter what mood I was in, this is recipe to keep in my favorites. Can%u2019t wait to try some more variations (zucchini seems to grow overnight). Thank you for sharing!
