Zucchini Nutmeg Bread

"This is yet another one of my favorite recipe passed onto me by generations and generations of great bakers before me. Very moist and delish!! Probably enhanced by the fresh zucchini picked from my grandpa's garden but I'm sure store bought zucchini will do just fine too."

  1. Haven't made this yet. will make this today.
     
  2. With a garden overload of zucchini needed to find recipes for it. So glad I found this one, not only was it so easy to throw together, but came out moist, and delicious. Even DH who is not a fan of sweet breads, liked this and even asked for it for breakfast with coffee today. I made one large loaf and 4 mini loafs. With just the 2 of us, will cut one mini and freeze the rest for later or when company comes. Thinking I may make another batch just to have on hand it's so good. Thanks for sharing - photo to follow once I get it downloaded
     
  3. Loved it! It's my third time making the recipe (for church bake sale). My husband and children can't get enough of it.
     
  4. GREAT RECIPE!! Turned out fantastic!
     
  5. Loved it! Was looking for a recipe with nutmeg in too. I tripled the recipe (too much zucchini) so it was a bit thick to mix, but the end result was yummy : )

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I love to cook and I love to bake even more. Obviously growing up here in Lancaster County (PA Dutch Country), I come from a long history of women who were homemakers with many children and cooking and baking were MANDATORY every night. 3 course meals with freshly baked desserts were staples every day growing up in my family. I, on the other hand, am a busy, professional, business owner with very long/late hours. I try to make as many homemade meals as possible but it is very difficult with my work schedule. In this neck of the woods, most recipes we grew up on and love are all stored in the mind only, no paper trails to be found. There are so many recipes I've gathered from watching my mom cook & bake over the years that are consider comfort food to me that I must take the time to write down the measurements so I can share them with all of you. I feel it's the least I can do after all of the wonderful new recipes I've obtained from everyone here. I just love to try new recipes and experiment with new ingredients.
