I’ve been experimenting with desserts and have settled in this one, a riff on our banana bread recipe.

Much just like the banana bread, these zucchini desserts are insanely nice and insanely simple to make!

No mixer, wood spoon only, and NULL bowls, although you might actually even make the batter in a single bowl. Very moist. Just candy enough.


NUTS AND RAISINS OPTIONAL
I say that the nuts and raisins/dried cranberries are non-compulsory simply due to the fact within the present day I watched my favourite 12-year antique first rate buddy go with out they all whereas nonetheless declaring how rather masses she beloved the muffins.

If you love nuts and raisins (or dried cranberries) by means of way of all potential preserve them in.

A TIP ABOUT ZUCCHINI
A fast notice concerning the shredded zucchini used for this recipe. Zucchinis can range somewhat of their moisture content. If they're lawn picked, they're doubtless to have rather masses of moisture. If they're off season from the market, they might be at the dry side.

A trick my grandmother used to do when going through dry zucchini, was to shred it, sprinkle a few water over it, then allow it pressure in a high-quality mesh sieve.
