Nice recipe! I made as written, just didn't add the nuts. They turned out perfect - moist and just the right mixture of flavor IMO. I made a couple of different flavored butters - sage and cinnamon - to top them with. That way, you can go with savory or sweet, whichever you prefer, without having to change the muffin recipe ;^). Next batch I think I'll try using some orange juice as another reviewer suggested - think that sounds tasty! Thanks - this is a keeper!!

Excellent recipe! I recalculated the recipe for making just 1 loaf (from 48 to 16 servings) for the first try. Only thing I did different was bump up the cinnamon from 1/8 t. to 1/2 t., because I love cinnamon with chocolate. But I think it was too much, so will use the original amount suggested next time. Like others, I added chocolate chips rather than the raisins and nuts, because I was making it for my daughter who is not found of either of those. What a lovely dessert bread! Moist, cake-like texture, and oh so chocolatey. What could be better? Knowing it's got zucchini in it adds that touch of "it's good for you, too" element. Perfect :^) I'm sure I'll try a few adjustments in future bakings: like using applesause or banana in place of the oil and using dried cherries like someone else suggested. But the recipe is wonderful just like it is written. Thanks!

I really liked this recipe. I made half the original recipe, because I only had 1 c. of blueberries on hand. Since others mentioned 2 T. of brown sugar didn't seem like enough, I added 1/4 c. (even though I was making half the recipe). Other than that, I followed the instructions. But since halving the recipe didn't use an entire egg, I just poured some of it into the dry ingredients and stirred with the fork, and added a little more until it was crumbly. I don't think I even used half of the egg. It came out perfect! The topping was just crisp enough, and didn't come out soft like in a cobbler - maybe something inbetween (but more on the crisp side). Very tasty and great presentation. I will definitely make this again!!
