Upon my return from vacation, I was greeted by an overgrown garden with one extraordinarily large, on steroids-like, zucchini. I wasn’t functioning too well the first day feeling the jet lag pretty strongly. Having already had a few mishaps in the kitchen (like nicking my finger on the mandoline) I didn’t tempt my luck and waited until day two at home to put this massive zucchini to use. And what better way than to make 12 mini loaves of two kinds of zucchini bread?
Here’s the first of my zucchini bread recipes which you’ll love since it is accented with King Arthur Flour cinnamon chips. And certainly you can substitute a different brand or leave them out all together and substitute a teaspoon or two of ground cinnamon, but the bread won’t be the same! I highly recommend ordering some of these decadent mini chips from King Arthur Flour.
