I am always making bread, doesn’t matter what time of year it is. We love fresh baked bread of all flavors, including this awesome Moist and Delicious Zucchini Bread Recipe! To be honest, recently the top pick has been this Zucchini Bread Recipe. The kids are asking me to make homemade Zucchini Bread a million times a week. Ok maybe not a million but you know what I am saying.
Zucchini Bread Recipe
Fresh bread, like this Zucchini Bread is something I love having in the house. None of my family ever complains when we have Zucchini Bread fresh baked and ready to eat! I am always about having things in the house that everyone loves to enjoy!
This really is the Best Zucchini Bread Ever, at least that is what everyone who has tasted it has told me, including my biggest critics, the kids! This Zucchini Bread Recipe, is moist, easy to make and most importantly delicious! Seriously you are going to want to eat it for breakfast and a snack!
Making Moist Zucchini Bread
The trick to making this zucchini bread moist, is using applesauce. You must make sure it is unsweetened applesauce or it will make this zucchini bread to sweet. I prefer using the smooth applesauce, but if you are looking thru your pantry and only have chunky applesauce you can use that. You will not taste the applesauce in this zucchini bread with applesauce recipe. It just makes the zucchini bread moist and the best bread ever!
Freezing Zucchini Bread
This homemade fresh Zucchini Bread never lasts long in our house and it is a bread recipe that I normally double the recipe of so I can stick a loaf in the freezer.
If you happen to find zucchini on sale or have an over abundance (if there is such a thing) of zucchini from your garden then you have to add this zucchini bread recipe to your must make recipe list! It is a great way to use up fresh zucchini because you can easily freeze this zucchini bread recipe after you bake it.
Freezing zucchini bread is simple, let the loafs of fresh baked bread cool completely. Then once they are cool wrap well with plastic wrap, then a layer of tinfoil and then stick in a ziplock bag. Place your zucchini bread in the freezer and it will keep for 3-6 months.
Once you are ready to defrost your homemade bread, just remove from the freezer and place in the fridge, while still wrapped until it is defrosted.
