Tips:

  • For a moist and flavorful cake, use freshly grated zucchini. Zucchini that has been sitting around for a while will be watery and make the cake dense.
  • Be sure to drain the zucchini well after grating it. This will help to prevent the cake from being too wet.
  • Use a light touch when mixing the batter. Overmixing will make the cake tough.
  • Bake the cake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Overbaking will make the cake dry.
  • If you don't have a broiler, you can toast the topping in a 350 degree Fahrenheit oven for 10-15 minutes.
