Zucchini Carrot Bread Recipe – A delicious bread recipe full of carrots and zucchini, topped with a streusel topping and drizzled with a vanilla glaze. What’s not to love about all that?!
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.
