    Lemon Zucchini Bread

    Hey guys, it's Mandy from Mandy's Recipe Box. I have a refreshing treat for you today. Lemon Zucchini Bread... my mom couldn't wait for me to be done taking pictures so she could taste it. The glaze can be as thick or thin as you want. Just use more or less lemon juice. Be sure to use fresh lemon juice in this recipe for the best flavor.

      I made two loaves of this tonight and they didn't turn out. The middles are gooey and they fell terribly. The taste is okay, but this isn't a recipe I'll be using again.

        Thank you for the feedback, Katharine. I'm so sorry these didn't turn out! I hate when that happens.

        You need to cook them as long as they need. I actually went almost an hour and a half on convection until top was firm. It was good for a long while but it’s fully cooked and good. Sometimes the time amount your given is conservative and consider also where you’re located.
