Too much garden zucchini?  This recipe was shared on my Facebook and I had to give it a whirl.  Yesterday I made a double recipe and a third (sugar free) loaf for my DH.  It's a delicious bread, and got thumbs up by our grandsons!

2 cups flour

1/2 t salt

2 t baking powder

1 1/3 c sugar

zest of 1 lemon

  2 eggs

  2 T lemon juice

  1/2 c buttermilk

  1/2 c oil

     1 c grated zucchini

         Glaze:  1 c [pwdered sugar, 2 T lemon juice, 1 T milk

Stir dry ingredients together.  In seperate bowl mix wet ingredients together.  Carefully stir the two mixtures together (don't over mix).  Fold in zucchini and pour into a 5 x 7" loaf pan.  Bake at 350 degrees for 35 minutes or until "tests done".  Afer removing loaf from oven, stir the Glaze ingrediens togehter.  With fork, poke holes into warm bread and pour glaze over bread.  Allow glaze to "set" and bread to cool before slicing.

By "sugar-free",  did you substitute for the sugar?  Or did you just leave it out?

Thank you so much for this delicious, moist bread recipe!  I had one lonely zucc from the garden and it was just enough.

I added a little lemon extract from The Spice House to give it a burst.  Even my non-zucc eaters ate this bread!
