Notes

it's completely up to you but I like to take out the extra moisture that shredded zucchini has using a paper towel and patting it lightly
Be sure to check if your baking soda and baking powder are fresh. Sometimes if these are stale it can result in a loaf that doesn't have it's typical rise.
