(You can freeze zucchini if you have too many.)

I found this recipe today:

Zucchini Bread

Makes 7 Servings

1 egg
2 tablespoons + 2 teaspoons granulated
sugar
1 1/4 cups plus 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
1/2 cup low-fat (1.5%) buttermilk
2 teaspoons stick margarine, melted
1 teaspoon grated lemon zest
1/2 teaspoon butter flavoring
1 cup (4 ounces) zucchini, grated and
squeezed dry

Preheat oven to 425oF. Spray an 8 x 4"
loaf pan with nonstick cooking spray.
In a large bowl, beat egg until pale yellow,
gradually adding sugar.
Sift flour, baking powder, salt and nutmeg
onto a sheet of waxed paper.
In small bowl, whisk together buttermilk,
margarine, zest and butter flavoring.
Alternately beat half the flour mixture
and half the buttermilk mixture into the
egg mixture. Fold in the zucchini, and
spoon into the prepared pan. Batter will be
thick.
Bake in upper third of oven for 10 minutes.
Reduce oven temperature to 400oF and
bake 50-60 minutes longer, or until a cake
tester inserted near the center comes out
clean. Cool on a rack for 10 minutes; turn
out and cool thoroughly before slicing.
