If you prefer a more indulgent finish, prepare the lemon glaze by whisking together 1 cup powdered sugar and 2-3 tablespoons lemon juice until smooth. Adjust the lemon juice amount depending on your desired consistency. Drizzle the glaze over the cooled loaf and allow it to set before slicing.
Tips for the Best Lemon Zucchini Bread:
- Freeze it: This bread freezes beautifully! Once the bread has fully cooled, slice it, wrap each slice in plastic wrap, and store them in a freezer-safe bag for up to 3 months. When ready to eat, thaw at room temperature or warm it slightly in the microwave.
- Reduce sweetness: If you prefer a less sweet bread, you can reduce the sugar or omit the glaze. The natural sweetness of the zucchini and honey/maple syrup will still shine through.
- Other add-ins: You can customize this bread by adding in blueberries, raisins, or chocolate chips for a fun twist.
