Notes

Notes:
Storage: Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. 
Helpful tips:
  • Be sure to squeeze the zucchini dry. If you skip this step, the bread will become soggy.
  • Cut the strawberries on the smaller side so they mix into batter easier.
  • Avoid overmixing the batter.
Commonly asked Questions about making Zucchini Bread:
Do you take the skin off of the zucchini when baking bread? It’s a personal choice. I leave the skin on while some people like to peel it off. 
Do you remove the seeds before making zucchini bread? No. Whether you are using a food processor or grating it, it is fine to leave the seeds in.
What is the easiest way to shred zucchini? Using a food processor is fast and efficient. Grating also works.
