GLAZED LEMON ZUCCHINI BREAD

I'm always seeing recipes that others have posted on Facebook and I hit the 'like' button but rarely actually try the recipe. This one was different. I love lemon anything and I have an abundance of zucchini so this seemed like the perfect scenario.

Boy oh boy am I glad I tried it! This bread is A.M.A.Z.I.N.G! 



From the first bite I knew this was going to be a recipe we added to our favorites list! Yummo! (Thank you T.D. for sharing on facebook!)


Ingredients
  • 2 cups flour
  • 1/2 tsp. salt
  • 2 tsp. baking powder
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 1 1/3 cups sugar
  • 2 TBSP lemon juice
  • 1/2 cup buttermilk (I used almond milk)
  • zest of 1 lemon
  • 1 cup grated zucchini
  • Glaze ingredients:
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 2 TBSP lemon juice
  • 1 TBSP milk
Instructions
  1. Mix flour, salt and baking powder in a medium bowl and set aside.
  2. In a large bowl, beat eggs. Then add oil and sugar until well blended. Add lemon juice, buttermilk, lemon zest to this mixture and blend all together.
  3. Fold in zucchini until it is mixed well.
  4. Add dry mixture to the wet mixture and blend all together until well combined.
  5. Pour batter into greased 9x5 loaf pan.
  6. Bake at 350 for 40-45 minutes or until golden brown.
  7. While still warm, make glaze and spoon over the bread. Let the glaze set up before cutting and serving.
 ** Be sure your pan is very well greased.
