This recipe brought back memories of being in the kitchen with my mom, grandmother, and great-grandmother, baking zucchini bread together. Four generations all doing their part and coming together to make something delicious. Zucchini cake is a wonderful recipe that not everyone would think tastes as good as it does. I paired this one with a quick cream cheese icing but it tastes amazing plain as well. I hope you enjoy it. Happy Baking!
