I love all of Paula's recipes but was disappointed in this one. It sunk in the middle, was hard on the top (10 minutes before it was supposed to be done), and it stuck to the pan even though I had sprayed it with Pam. Any ideas as to what I might have done wrong?

This is the best Zucchini Bread Recipe Ever!! My father in law always had a huge garden with lots of Zucchini's. I made this for him every year to take deer hunting. He's gone now, but he loved this bread Paula. We all do! Everytime I make it now I think of him. Thanks for the memories, he was a wonderful man.

This recipe rocks!! I had such a large zucchini that I was able to make 2 batches (4 loaves). They were gone w/in 2 days, between my home & work! The top was slighty crunchy where the inside was moist & FLAVORFUL! They came out of the pans perfectly each time! They reminded me of a perfect fall day!! Today I'm actually going to try the same recipe, but with bananas! Great recipe Paula!!

This is absolutely the best zucchini bread I've ever baked. however, no matter how many times I bake this yummy bread, it always falls in the middle so that my loaf cake looks like the letter "M". Am I taking them out of the oven too soon or what?

Best Zucchini bread I have ever made! Was gone in a heartbeat. Texture was wonderful, moist & sliced well. I put in lemon zest instead of lemon juice & cut the sugar by one cup. Will make this my go to recipe.

This is a great recipe! My grandsons loved it. They are home from college for the summer and they and their friends ate it for a midnight snack. Next morning I had none to eat with my coffee. Thanks Paula .

I made this zucchini bread for the first time yesterday and it was an instant favorite for my family. It's was gone before I even got a second slice! Guess I'll have to make more
! This will definitely be THE recipe we use for Zucchini bread. It is absolutely delicious and very easy to make.

I've tried this recipe today and it's just good. Another way of cooking our freshly picked Zucchini. And I am going to make some more later.. Thanks for sharing this great recipe..

My Mom first gave me a loaf of bread she'd baked using this recipe about two years ago. Knowing I had the cookbook the recipe was in (since I'd bought one for every cook in my family), she told me which recipe she'd used and gave me a bunch of zucchini from her garden so I could try it myself. WOW!! It was so delicious. I baked some to put in the freezer. Defrosted several months later, it tastes just as good as it did fresh from the oven. That was the most impressive part, to me. I've shared many loaves and have passed along the recipe several times. It never fails to impress and have folks clammoring for more.

My boyfriend always insists that this is by far the best zucchini bread he's ever had, and there is some steep competition in his background! The only thing I change is that I use more than the recommended amount of spices, I use closer to a tablespoon of cinnamon and nutmeg. EVERYONE loves this!!!
