ZUKE PECAN BREAD
I found this great Zuke Bread recipe in the Rocky Mountain News, but, it originated in The Uncommon Gourmet Cookbook by Ellen Helman. I've made it many times over the years and have always had good luck with it. I also like to make muffins out of this batter as well. Fill them about 2/3 full and bake about 25 minutes at 350 degrees. Bread or muffins freeze really well. I cut down the prep time by grating and freezing 3 cups of Zuke's in freezer bags and defrosting as I need them.

[email protected]This bread was okay. It wasn't as flavorful as I was hoping for. It was a little dry and the pecans were a bit too crunchy. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

[email protected]I've made this zuke pecan bread several times now and it's always a crowd-pleaser. It's so easy to make and it always turns out delicious. I love the moist texture and the crunchy pecans. It's also a great way to use up zucchini from my garden.
