Thank you for all who baked this recipe and shared their results, looks like I will continue to bake zucchini bread from an old time favorite excellent recipe found in my "Good Housekeeping Illustrated Cookbook" 1980 edition.
This is an odd recipe all around. It made two rather squat loaves. The one hour baking time would have been way too long - I pulled them from the oven after 45 minutes and they were still a bit brown for my liking. I think I know why there isn’t a picture attached with this recipe … the final result is not great. What a bummer!
I wish I had read the reviews before spending my time and ingredients on this lousy recipe. Despite the lovely combination of spices, it ended up tasting like flour.
I would not make this again, gummy flavorless dry bread
I didn’t like the spice mix on this although the friends and family I served it to loved it.
Wow that was a waste of time and ingredients! I also wish I would have read comments here first. Two very flat tasteless dry loaves and I took them out after 25 min. So disappointed and frustrating. I will 100% read comments before making anything else.
