Our daughter , Bronwyn, loves to make this bread for a party because the loaf looks so attractive sliced, with flecks of green showing, along with a touch of orange, all marbled with walnuts.

Recipe from the The Book of Breads by Evan Jones.
Ingredients
SERVINGS: Makes one 9-inch loaf.
- 1½ cups white flour
- 1 cup sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon coarse salt or ¼ teaspoon table salt
- ¼ teaspoon ground ginger
- 2 eggs
- ½ cup oil
- 1½ cups grated zucchini
- 1 teaspoon chopped orange peel (Rather than grating the peel, strip it from the orange and chop. It has more crunch this way.)
- ½ cup chopped walnuts
