This recipe originally came from Joyful Abode, I have made it several times and changed it up, to make it SCD legal and by adding the lemon zest and frosting. It is a great bread even without the frosting. Thanks Joyful Abode!

3/4 c. shredded zucchini
6-8 eggs
1/2 c. grapeseed, olive, or coconut oil
