This Zucchini Bread recipe is the best way to use up an abundance of garden zucchini. It also freezes really well.

Every summer, a group of my family and friends would go camping for a week. The adults would pack coolers with food and drinks. My aunt used to make zucchini bread a lot during this time. One year, my cousin was old enough to help and made the loaf herself.

That was the year a squirrel climbed into their car when they were unpacking their camping gear … and ate the bread!

I actually don’t remember ever seeing zucchini bread at any family function again. It popped into my head recently, so of course, I had to ask my aunt for her recipe. It has changed since the year the squirrel ate it. It’s a lot healthier now, but still tastes just as great.

What’s great about this recipe is that you can freeze the second loaf. I wrap it in fill, then place it in a freezer safe bag. If you’re having overnight guests, pull it out and let it defrost in the fridge. It will be ready for your guests the next day.
