ITALIAN ZUCCHINI BREAD – The Southern Lady C...

If you have an abundance of zucchini, this is the bread for you! It goes great with spaghetti!

❤️WHY WE LOVE THIS RECIPE

Most zucchini breads you find are sweet but this is a wonderful savory version. We love the herbs and seasonings in this bread and it’s an excellent way to enjoy your summer abundance of zucchini. This bread is wonderful toasted with butter and goes great with just about any summer dinner!

SWAPS

This is a delicious base recipe; you can switch out the herbs and spices to your preference. This has oregano in it but you could add basil too. You can also change out the cheese and could easily use cheddar. We prefer to use buttermilk; you can use a substitute if you like, but the fat content will not be the same.

CAN YOU FREEZE THIS BREAD?

Yes, you can freeze this bread. You can also double the recipe if needed! This is a really delicious bread, and it won’t last long!
