Into the oven they go! And here is one of the Zucchini Bread loafs fresh from the oven!

Zucchini Bread - fresh from the oven

The zucchini bread had a wonderful texture - light, moist and melted in the mouth. There was so much flavour and despite my concerns about the amount of sugar it had the right blend of flavours and leaves one wanting more.

1. Original recipe stated 1g baking powder, 5g baking soda but I didn't have any baking soda and so used 5g baking powder and the bread rose very well without the baking soda

2. The recipe stated 60g walnuts but I used what I had on hand
