Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Grease two 9x5-inch loaf pans with cooking spray and line with parchment paper; set aside.
- In a large bowl, stir together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and dry pudding mix; set aside.
- In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the eggs and sugar until thick and lemon color. Stir in the vanilla and oil. Last, stir in the shredded zucchini and pistachios.
- Then, add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir together until just combined. The batter will be a weird green color, but it won't look like that after baking.
- Divide batter between the two prepared loaf pans. Bake for 55 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. The center will most likely sink, but that's okay.
- Cool in pans for 10 minutes, then remove loaves from pans and cool completely. Slice each loaf into ten slices and serve.

CREAM CHEESE ZUCCHINI BREAD (LOAF AND/OR MUFFINS)
This was a forgotten recipe in Private Recipes folder. I vaguely remember working on it a year or so ago! I tried it out again this morning, and it's very good if I do say so myself. I use Splenda and low fat ingredients and am posting it that way for the nutritional info, but feel free to use regular ingredients if you desire. This makes two loaves so you can eat one and give one away or freeze for later use. When I made it this morning, I made a loaf and 10 muffins. Because I was using it as a breakfast bread I left out the brown sugar to make it less sweet. For a sweeter, snack type bread, make as written. Hope you enjoy!

Tips:
- Choose fresh, ripe zucchini: Look for zucchini that is firm and has a deep green color. Avoid zucchini that is bruised or has blemishes.
- Grate the zucchini: Use a box grater or a food processor to grate the zucchini. Make sure to squeeze out any excess moisture from the grated zucchini before adding it to the batter.
- Use a combination of flours: This recipe uses both all-purpose flour and almond flour. The almond flour adds a nutty flavor and helps to keep the bread moist.
- Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter can make the bread tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Bake the bread until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: This usually takes about 45-50 minutes.
- Make the cream cheese glaze while the bread is baking: This will give the glaze time to cool and thicken.
- Drizzle the glaze over the bread while it is still warm: This will help the glaze to soak into the bread.
Conclusion:
Zucchini pistachio cherry quick bread with cream cheese glaze is a delicious and easy-to-make bread that is perfect for breakfast, brunch, or a snack. The bread is moist and flavorful, and the cream cheese glaze adds a touch of sweetness and richness. This bread is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it!
