    Zucchini Pecan Bread

    Published: Aug 22, 2013 · Updated: Feb 2, 2021 by Kevin Williams | 1 Comment

    This is the season of 'kinis....well, bikinis, yes, but also zucchinis and that's what we'll talk about here. Zucchini season continues in most Amish areas as the versatile vegetable gets harvested and used in jams, breads, cookies, and casseroles.  A friend shared this recipe with me and as I looked at it I saw that is a basic zucchini bread recipe that I've seen in Amish kitchens especially in the South where pecans are more plentiful.  In fact, when I was in Ethridge, Tennessee, I did see this bread at an Amish roadside stand.  Doesn't this look delish?  Here is the recipe you can try, thanks for sharing, Penny!
