Zucchini Fruit Bread

Leslie Keddington

This zucchini fruit bread is my mom's recipe. She is a wonderful cook! I grew up sitting in the kitchen talking to her as she created yummy things to eat. When I was in high school my friends would come over and stay and visit with my mom even when I was not home. She offered them delicious treats and a listening ear.

½ cup oil
