7 Reviews of The Ultimate Zucchini Bread

From: Thorsten

On Jan 10, 2006

Ultimate is an understatement here. I was a little sceptical, because of zucchini in a bread, but I'm not only convinced, I love this bread. I only grated half of the zucchini, the other half I have diced, because I like to have these little pieces. I used walnuts. The bread was put together very fast. I have had to extend the baking time a little, but I only used one loaf pan, so this might be due to this. I've checked the doneness with a toothprick and it works. The bread has a fluffy texture and the coarse chopped walnuts and the diced zucchini add additional different textures. The spices were well blended and were the best basis for the sweet taste of the bread with some salty, nutty and fresh zucchini notes. It was so comforting to have a slice of this bread with a glas of milk. Not only kids will be pleased by this bread, serve it with a cup of tea or coffee in the afternoon or as a dessert with some fruit and cream or for breakfast with your favorite jam. It doesn't matter how you will serve it or when, the result will always be the same: ultimate good.

    Ultimate is right!!! Ten Stars! This was the BEST zucchini bread ever. i loved your strawberry and cream bread and didn't think it was possible to top it. So good. Do not change a thing.

    I found this to be a tasty bread even with the addition of 1/2 cup of mashed banana (I ran out of zucchinni). I also added a couple handfuls of choc chips. Very tasty, easy and a big hit as a treat Just made this a second time but added the orange zest (a nice addition) but also threw in a couple of handfuls of rolled oats. Made the bread VERY dense... won't do it again.

    This zucchini bread has a nice texture; not too sweet and a firm (not gummy or heavy) texture. I used a 9x5 pan and made two muffins.I was surprised how high my muffins rose in the pan. I loved the sunflower seeds on top and slight orange flavor. Roxygirl

    This recipe came out awesome. I only made half a recipe, and I kind of forgot to put the oil in the batter....but guys...the bread was fabulous even without it! The orange zest gives it another dimension and toasting the nuts really does bring out the flavor more! The sweetness level in the bread is just right, not too overly sweet! I am going to take this loaf I made to work and make another one...this time with oil! Thank you for such a yummy bread!

    Not what I was expecting- but so delicious! Finally, a recipe for this that is not greasy- or gooey. It has a perfect velvety texture and the orange is so subtle. I made mini loaves to give away and did cook them at 50 min as my zucchini is wet. I would add more spice next time. I am throwing out the handed down family recipe and keeping this one!

    Great zucchini bread, even though I was too lazy to toast the walnuts. I used a little less sugar, part whole wheat flour and lemon zest because I didn't have an orange. It's one of the best zucchini breads I've ever had.
