We love this easy zucchini bread recipe for those days when you just need some quick bread recipes! Banana bread is a great choice as well. Bread is the best way to make any day better, and even if this is your first time making it, don’t be intimidated! It’s easy. Once you’re done, you can store this in an airtight container and it will keep for a few days (if you can resist eating this homemade zucchini bread all in one day). When it comes to sweet breads, this delicious zucchini bread is one for the books!

It’s also a great way to use up the large zucchini in your garden at the end of the summer. There are endless things you can do with grated zucchini, and this is just one of the many! You can make zucchini muffins, mini loaves, or really anything with the zucchini bread batter. Next time you have extra fresh zucchini, you’ll want to pull out this moist zucchini bread recipe from your printable recipe card collection. You can even customize this great recipe! Add lemon juice to the top, make a glaze with some coconut oil, or add a cup of chocolate chips.

    Have 2 loaves in the oven right now :D they are smelling good, Carm

  2. Brittany says:

    I saw on Instagram you made them into muffins, how do you adjust bake time and oven temp to turn them into muffins? Also will adding chocolate chips mess with timing at all?

  3. Cyd says:

    We have a couple of zucchini muffin recipes -https://www.sixsistersstuff.com/recipe/2015/01/mini-zucchini-muffins-recipe/https://www.sixsistersstuff.com/recipe/2014/02/chocolate-zucchini-muffins-recipe/

  4. Britt says:

    Is this the same recipe as the "moist chocolate chip zucchini bread" recipe you had in I believe 2001? I keep it on Pinterest and never printed it out and now its been deleted from your website :( :(

  5. Cyd says:

    This is the only chocolate chip zucchini bread recipe that we have. If you scroll down to the bottom of the post, you will see the older photograph of this recipe. You can see if that looks familiar to you. It's a very moist bread and one of our favorites.

  6. Elly says:

    What if I want to make four mini loaves? How would the cooking time adjust?

  7. Keri Walker says:

    Has anyone made this with gluten free flour?? If so, how did it turn out? Thanks.

  8. Shey says:

    What happened to your Chocolate chip Zuchinni bread recipe? I had it saved on Pinterest and now it’s gone. The link still there but the page gives an error.

  9. Momma Cyd says:

    This is our favorite one and we often add in chocolate chips. https://www.sixsistersstuff.com/recipe/classic-zucchini-bread/
