Zucchini Lemon Poppyseed Bread image

I wanted to try something a little different when I found several containers of poppy seeds while organizing my spice cabinet. Since it was summertime and zucchini was coming in droves, this is what I came up with. I based this off of recipe #17123, but made enough changes thought it was worth adding my own version. This would probably be delicious with a lemon glaze as well. Enjoy!!

This bread is a great way to use up zucchini. It's moist and flavorful, and the lemon and poppy seeds give it a nice touch.

This bread was a bit too sweet for my taste, but it was still good. I think I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time.
