This is our first year and we are having a great time with our raised bed garden! Our summer squash has been very prolific so far. We’ve dried it and put it in lasagna, made chips, and somewhat followed a zuchinni bread recipe from Mr. Lynx’s grandma’s 2008 Grange cookbook (not her recipe).
I followed:
4 eggs
2 c. sugar
1 c. oil
3 1/2 c. flour
1 1/2 ts baking soda
1 1/2 ts salt
1 ts cinnamon
3/4 ts baking powder (somehow I didn’t have this and sprinkled like 1/8 ts more baking soda instead)
2 c. zuchinni style summer squash (grated and drained, I eyedballed.)
1 ts vanilla
Bake at 350 for about an hour. Makes 2 loaves.
As these older recipe goes, it wasn’t specific as to the order of ingredients, so I just went from the top down.
We really enjoyed it, and it was a hit at a weekend family BBQ as well.
I currently have more squash draining and more cut and drying for chips!
It is! I omitted nuts and raisins from our version, which were the changes I made.

If there is a good reason to grow zucchini, it is this: the zucchini bread is one of my favorites…no way it can be messed up! I love the raisins and nuts, but not everyone does…your plants sure look healthy and looks like you can freeze some loaves for winter!
Thanks for the recipe, they smell great!
These little loaf pans had me second guessing, started out with 3 then changed to 2 but should have stayed with 3 because they took forever to bake!
I couldn’t find the costco sized jar of chocolate chips which means rotten children ate them up, the sneaky little boogers. & we’re out of walnuts so one loaf got slivered almonds.
I wanted to try your recipe because I like zucchini & do not like banana, but I probably should have used those up instead, lol.
