We have an over abundance right now of zucchini in our garden. It is getting bad! We have logs of zucchini. Like thick tree trunks. I am going to start freezing it but until then I am searching for zucchini recipes. Have you seen the recipe for lemon zucchini bread that is circulating Facebook and pinterest? It looked awesome and I love lemon so I gave it a shot!
This is the original pin. Doesn't it look dreamy?! The recipe is from Lil Luna blog and you can find it right here. Head over there to see a ton more amazing recipes!
And here's mine. Wah-wah! It did not turn out as well. My loaves were no where near as pretty! The texture was off too- it was sort of gummy. Or rubbery or something. I think there were a couple of factors. I am planning on doing some testing to get it just right because the taste was divine!
I was out of powdered sugar so I had to improvise my glaze. Really it ended up being more like frosting. But man oh man was it yummy!
Sad little slices. Have no fear they will be better soon enough! I am planning on testing and testing to figure out where I went wrong.
Oh and just for funsies! Here is my glaze recipe:
Cream cheese and Lemon Glaze
3/4 of a can of cream cheese frosting
Zest from half a lemon
Juice from a whole lemon
2 tablespoons milk
Whisk all ingredients until smooth. And voila!
Peace out, AnneMarie
