I cut this recipe back to 12 servings and made muffins out of the batter. Instead of vegetable oil, I used melted butter. I cut the melted butter by half and substituted homemade applesauce for the other half. I also increased the baking powder/baking soda and cinnamon to a teaspoon each and I used organic raisins. Very good zucchini bread recipe--very moist and slightly chewy. We really liked the cinnamon sugar topping but there needed to be a little more. We'll increase it next time. I think I'll add a half cup of pecans next time, too, as one of the other reviewer's suggested.
This was delicious!!! I made so many batches and gave them to friends and family. They all loved them!!! And now i have tons of people asking for the recipe. However I didnt add the raisins ... I've never been a big raisin fan. And i added more cinnamon. Also i made a batch with walnuts which was also very yummy :)
Excellent - other than making muffins instead of bread I didn't, and wouldn't, change a thing. Just right cinnamon flavor - neither too heavily spiced nor too sweet. Loved the raisins, which contributed interest as well as flavor. My raisins were a little on the dry side but plumping them up for about 10 minutes in hot water did the trick (actually, I really liked how they turned out, all puffy and moist, and I just might do that from now on!). The simple cinnamon-sugar topping was just perfect for these muffins, which I baked at 350 degrees. This batter was so nice, and so accurate that I'll keep it in mind to substitute carrots or apples as well.
This was really good. I added 1/2 cup chopped walnuts 1/2 cup regular raisins and 3t. cinnamon (instead of the 1t) to the mix and it turned out perfect!
Great recipe! I left out the raisins.
Excellent zucchini recipe. Everyone loved it. I added some nutmeg with the cinnamon. I will be making this for years to come.
I actually forgot to add the topping (I know! I can't believe it!) but this bread was still yummy without it! Omitted the raisins and added chocolate chips instead. No complaints heard in this house!:)
This zucchini bread was very good. I made this as written with the exception of omitting the golden raisins and adding a cup of chopped walnuts. I would make the following changes next time. I d try adding another cup of zucchini and increase the cinnamon in the batter to 2 t. And I would increase the brown sugar topping probably by half. The recipe didn t specify what size loaf pans to use and there are a lot of different sizes out there. A word of caution don t use two 9x5 loaf pans like I did! You will end up with very short squatty loaves. Mine probably were only about 1 3/4 high a big disappointment. I would think 8 1/2x4 1/2 pans would be more appropriate for this recipe. I would definitely make this again with my tweaks and use smaller pans!
This is pretty good. LOVE the topping; jazzes up the recipe. Thinking it could use a little more flavor, somehow. Maybe some more cinnamon or something? I like it a lot better than the first recipe I tried; the batter is much more of a batter than the other was, which was way too dry, scary dry LOL. I believe I've found a keeper in this one :-)
IT WAS QUITE GOOD BUT LACKING THE "I WANT MORE" TASTE
