Step 4
Add the dry to the wet ingredients and mix thoroughly, then fold in the grated zucchini. Mix.
Step 5
Sprinkle in half of the walnuts – reserve the rest for the top of the bread – and mix.
Step 6
Spray a baking or muffin pan with oil then add the batter.
Step 7
Bake in the oven for 30 – 35 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and a toothpick poked in the middle of it comes out clean.
