I made this last night as I had leftover zucchini I didn't know what to do with!! I followed the recipe exactly but put the batter in one large loaf pan.......after an hour it wasn't done, half an hour later still not done....It took a total of 2 hours in the oven!!!! Despite my fears, the bread came out moist and tasty. The bread could have taken on even more zucchini and walnuts, but is delicious still the same.
