Holiday season is here and what better way to start a chilly morning than with a warm spiced slice of Zucchini Bread. Perfectly sweet bread spiced with warm spices, shredded zucchini and walnuts. It’s warm cozy and so so good.
Over on Instagram I partnered with C&H sugar and you already know I had to share this delicious recipe with you all. Tis the season for all the family favorites. This Zucchini Bread is perfect for breakfast, gifting, or whenever you’re craving something comforting.
This recipe is inspired by my mom’s Zucchini bread she made when I was a kid. Every year she would get a ton of orders making and gifting this delicious bread. Of course growing up, I didn’t appreciate how special this bread really was, because zucchini lol BUT as I’ve matured, this is truly a treat.
