- 1 cup coarsely grated zucchini (laid loosely in cup and not packed)

- Bake: Transfer batter to the prepared pan, bake for about 90 minutes at 350F, or until a toothpick comes out clean.
- Cool and serve: Let the bread cool in the pan for 15 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- Make sure to tent the bread with foil during baking to prevent over-browning.
- This bread is very moist, so ensure it’s fully cooked through before removing from the oven.
