I can recall the first time I was introduced to Zucchini bread. I was a little girl and a lady from down the street came over to our house and happily presented a loaf of zucchini bread. She was making some bread and new that my mom loved zucchini. Now I was a young kid at the time and I heard the word zucchini and thought of vegetables. I was nt looking forward to trying a vegetable bread! That’s for sure.
My mother somehow coerced me into trying this bread. And what do you know? I loved it! It was just as good as banana bread, much to my surprise. Ever since that I day, I grew up loving zucchini bread. Zucchini is so cheap and a couple of them go a long way!
One other thing that I like about this bread, is that you can change it up. Add a little pizzazz and make it even tastier than the original version!
This salted caramel zucchini is an awesome recipe. Once you try this delicious recipe, your mind will be swirling with ideas on how you can change up this classic bread!
