Zucchini and Nut Loaf Cake
Every recipe tells a story. This cake always amazes people and tends to become a conversation piece! The zucchini keeps it moist, and it makes a light, fluffy dish that is not very sweet. A perfect tea cake. If you must ice it, a cream cheese frosting makes the perfect match. My family eats it with a slice of cheddar. The one in the picture is a sage cheddar, which pairs well.
