Spiced Zucchini Bread with Honey Glaze

Happy Friday! I hope you guys are doing something fun this weekend? We don’t have too many hot sunny days left- take advantage! Tell me what you are up to- we are being boring at home.

Spiced Zucchini Bread with Honey Glaze

Are you guys freaking out about what to do with all of the zucchini? I didn’t even grown it this year (book!!!!) but just in friends and family I already have a ton of zucchini to use up- and they are HUGE zucchini. I just saw some at Pike Place Market that were the size of a newborn baby or our dog Wilbur- HUGE!

Spiced Zucchini Bread with Honey Glaze

So here is one of the best possible ways to enjoy it- Zucchini Bread. Actually, not just zucchini bread, but Spiced Zucchini Bread with a finger licking Cinnamon Glaze.

You guys. I could barely contain myself. We were eating this hot with the glaze running everywhere and truly licking our hands clean. It was a bit of a spectacle. But such a delicious spectacle. MAKE THIS and be happy you did 🙂
