This recipe was inspired by my daughter friend Nguyen, you can check out her blog here.
This week-end my daughter Danielle came to visit me . She wanted to make this Zucchini bread recipe she found from her friend. The funny thing is that Nguyen had converted the recipe from Zucchini to Pear . Danielle forgot that . Since I had already bought the Zucchini we decided to add both the pear and Zucchini. Which made the bread even more moist and nutritious. Love this recipe not to sweet and makes a great quick breakfast for those on the go.
