What is National Zucchini Bread Day?

Every year, National Zucchini Bread Day encourages bakers to bake this delectable bread on April 25th.

Many explorers who came to the United States brought back what they considered strange foods, including the zucchini. The zucchini eventually made its way to Italy, where it was named zucchino. Native Americans referred to zucchini as "something eaten raw." However, we all know that zucchini is the best cooked, especially in bread.

Zucchini bread is similar to other quick breads like banana bread. Muffins, scones, and biscuits are among the other quick breads you may be familiar with making. In loaf pans, baked Zucchini and banana bread goes into the oven when baked. When finished, slice and serve with butter, peanut butter, jam, or even plain.
