PINEAPPLE CRANBERRY ZUCCHINI BREAD

So moist, SO Blue Ribbon! We added the optional coconut and would highly recommend it. Including dried cranberries in the recipe adds a pop of flavor to the zucchini bread. This bread is so moist when you cut into it, it may break apart a bit. Make sure to grab every single crumb. It's that good. Enjoy!

ZUCCHINI-CRANBERRY RELISH BREAD



Zucchini-Cranberry Relish Bread image

This is a variation on MizzNezz's "Pineapple-zucchini bread recipe #43919". You will need to make Chef-Girl-R-D's "Cranberry Orange relish recipe #150666" or a similar Cranberry relish. I had some of this relish left over so decided to try it in the bread. Use whole wheat pastry flour for a less heavy texture. Can be found in stores with bulk-food sections. Thanks to the above mentions chefs for their recipes.
