Zucchini Carrot Bread with Earl Grey Glaze

I LOVE Zucchini Bread!  It is one of my favorite treats especially when it’s cold outside.  Nothing is better than zucchini bread with a hot cup of coffee in the morning or a cup of tea in the afternoon.

Today I’m sharing a delicious recipe for Zucchini Carrot Bread with a Streusel Topping and topped with a Vanilla Glaze.  My mom always makes zucchini bread for us when she comes to visit us and this is her famous recipe.  I added 1 cup of shredded carrots because I feel like if I’m eating vegetables for breakfast – it must be healthy.  Don’t you agree?

The Zucchini Carrot Bread alone is awesome but the Vanilla Glaze adds just the right amount of sweetness that makes it a wonderful treat.  Plus, I’m a sucker for anything that has a vanilla glaze.
