So do you have a lot of zucchini from your garden. This is a great healthy way to use it. It is even gluten free. Today I should be finishing up the quinoa recipes for the book. It has been interesting learning about all the things I can make with quinoa. The book is going to be gluten free for those of you who are trying to eat gluten free. It will be coming out around the first of the year. We will keep you posted. It will have a large assortment of recipes. It is a great way to use up some zucchini without a lot of sweetener. Hope you have a great weekend.

ReplyDeleteIs that 1.5C + 2T?
Yes. correct.
DeleteI really enjoyed this bread- enough to make it again. Perfect amount of sweetness for me. Cooked for less time than recipe called for but now I'm not recalling how much less.
ReplyDeleteThank You! I am sorry you aren't remembering the time. I would just keep a close eye on it. I love this bread too.
DeleteI love this recipe, thanks for sharing! I just made it and found that 45 min was good. Of course ovens can be different so not a bad idea to play around a bit regardless. I do so like the health component of quinoa flour along with the Zuchinni;this was just what I was looking for this evening!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the insights. Glad you enjoyed it.
