I love how this recipe packs in both zucchini and carrots—such a clever way to sneak in some extra veggies. The blend of cinnamon and nutmeg must give it a lovely warmth, too

Hello all! I love zucchini in baked goods! I think a drizzle of cream cheese glaze on top would be amazing, though it’s probably great without it too!
