Zucchini Bread || Foodie Friday

In this house, we are all about Banana/Carrot/Pumpkin cakes and our allotment plot has been producing more zucchinis/courgettes than we can possibly consume. Cue me looking for new and exciting ways to consume the never ending quantities of courgette. So I tried this new recipe and really enjoyed it. I hope you do too.
