Banana Zucchini Bread

My wife made this delicious bread with a homegrown zucchini. She started with the recipe from the link but had a few modifications.

That’s it. I’m enjoying a slice with coffee as I type this. Let me know in the comments if you made it and the results.
Also, let me know if you would like to see more recipes.
