Zucchini Poppy Seed Bread

It’s been really hot where we live, but my garden has been thriving. I’ve been getting a lot of zucchini in particular. Some of them grew too big in fact, and therefore are not very tender. Yet big zucchinis are still great to use for savory or sweet breads. Check out other zucchini-based recipes on my blog that I have posted from last year’s harvest.

The zucchini or courgette is a summer squash that is usually harvested when immature and about 6-8 inches in length. Zucchini squash can be dark green, light green, or yellow in color.
