It’s that time of summer when my garden is overflowing with zucchini and I’m over here Googling 101 Ways to Cook Zucchini Without Gagging Your Family.

Hopefully this post will shoot to the #1 spot of that Google search soon, because this Crazy Good Zucchini Bread Recipe is the absolutely the best-tasting way to use up all that zucchini that is sprouting in your garden right now.

There is nothing better for breakfast on a lazy summer weekend than warm, cinnamony sweet zucchini bread fresh outta the oven.
