Absolutely the best zucchini bread I have ever eaten. A great way to use zucchini and actually enjoy what you end up with.

Eh. It was good, but the real problem was that I made 'MOMS Zucchini Bread' on the very same day, (from this site) which was WAY better for some reason. If I had not made the other bread, I would have ranted and raved about this one, but side by side comparison, the other wins hands down.

I just made this recipe and its really good. I added chocolate chips instead of raisins though and I added a 1/2 cup of sourcream since people had said it was on the dry side. I would definitely make this again.

This is really good. For those of you who think you don't like zucchini bread, think again! The coconut totally hides the texture, if that is an issue for you. The only change that I made was to use 1/2 cup sugar, and 1/2 cup (unpacked) brown sugar. It looks like a lot of ingredients, but it's really not much work at all. Thanks for a great recipe.

I made this bread and left out the currants. I substituted chocolate chips instead and actually thought it was rather dry and heavy. I found another zucchini bread recipe from this site that had 2 cups of zucchini and it turned out very moist so I might increase the amount next time. I really liked the coconut flavor but maybe it dried out the bread?

This is very good just as laid out, but after experimenting I think I've found three changes worthy of sharing. Firstly, I couldn't stand to pitch out the water in which the raisins were plumped (why toss away so much flavor?) so instead I use 1/2c of hottest tap water (toss raisins and let soak about 10-15 minutes in it) then reserve it after draining the raisins and add this cooled liquid to the egg, oil, and sugar mixture. Secondly, to balance the added liquid, and also add some healthy fiber, I add 1/2c whole-wheat flour and a few tablespoons ground flax seed. Thirdly, I use the longer, shredded coconut instead of the flaked, as I think it improves the texture. Really delicious results!

This one had great flavor, but there were a couple things I really didn't care for. First, the edges overbaked by the time the middle was done. Also, it was pretty crumbly. I think that the coconut might be to blame. But it could be because I used half whole wheat flour. But since I couldn't tast the coconut anyway, I think if I made this again I would leave that out and up the oil or add applesauce or something. Oh, and I doubled the recipe and made half into muffins. They baked more evenly but didn't puff up pretty and round like muffins should. So if you're looking for a recipe to make into muffins, this isn't it.

I made this for the first time last night and it turned out beautifully, very moist and flavorful. I did omit the nuts and substituted applesauce for the oil. I would never have thought to add coconut to zucchini bread but it works! This is a keeper.

I replaced half of the oil with applesauce and used raisins. My co-workers love the bread because it is so flavorful.

Perfect! This is easily the BEST bread I've made (I've made a lot of sweet breads)! I recommend using 1 1/2 c whole wheat flour and 1/2 c wheat germ to up the fiber. No noticable changes in taste. Since this recipe can run slightly dry, if you find yourself considering cutting down on the oil - don't. I added 1/2 cup of applesause along with the oil and it is just perfect. With or without the changes this bread is excellent!

Wow! It is hot out of the oven. I couldn't wait to taste it so I cut it early (cuts better if cooled first) and put butter on a slice and it was out of the world. I used a reviewers recommendation and instead of 1 c. of oil I used 1/2 c oil and 1/2 apple sauce. I also omitted the nuts. It was moist and delicious. It's a keeper. Especially in zucchini season.

My coworkers loved it. I doubled the recipe for two loaves, however the loaves were so small! I recommend increasing the recipe by 50% to make a decent sized loaf. I also omitted the raisins, thought it was overkill. Other than that, this is definitely good zucchini bread. Oh, and I used half light brown sugar and half white sugar.
