Hi Friends,
This is Kristina posting from Karin’s blog. I just moved into a great new apartment in Orange County and now that I’m not commuting for two and a half hours every day I have a lot more time to cook!
I was wondering if any of you have a great zucchini bread recipe you could share with me here?
Eating warm zucchini bread with coffee (or better yet – a great chai latte!) always makes me think of the crisp Santa Barbara fall and enjoying that snack while studying.
Thanks to any of you who have a great recipe to share!
Here is Oma’s recipe that has been in the family for at least 30 years. This is one that I have used many, many times.
Zucchini Bread

3 cups flour
1 ½ cup sugar

1 cup nuts
1 cup raisins

Hi,
This is Becky in Indianapolis. The Zucchini Bread recipe is the same as Oma’s …maybe that is where I got it. But it is the best!!
Here is something different when you have more grated zucchini than you need for the bread recipe.
