For a more intense lemon flavor, add an additional teaspoon of lemon zest to the batter.
Toasting the walnuts enhances their flavor and adds a pleasant crunch.
Squeezing excess moisture from the grated zucchini prevents the bars from becoming soggy.
Store leftover bars in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.

  • Pietro Beatty

    Be sure to squeeze out the zucchini, I didn't the first time and they were very soggy

  • Warren Bernhard

    I followed the recipe exactly and the bars turned out perfectly. I would recommend this recipe to anyone.

  • Vernice Mitchell

    I used a different kind of nut because I didn't have walnuts, but they were still really good.

  • Darwin Turner

    My zucchini plants went crazy this year, and this recipe was a great way to use some of it up. The bars were moist and delicious.

  • Vaughn Abshire

    These were so easy to make and everyone loved them! I added a glaze on top and it was perfect.

  • Wilford Balistreri

    These were a hit at our family gathering. The kids especially loved the lemon flavor.

  • Vivianne Runteadams

    I made these for a bake sale and they were the first thing to sell out! I'll definitely be making them again.

  • Lorenza Williamsonmayert

    Super easy recipe. I will say, my bars needed to bake for nearly 50 minutes to be done in the middle. But, the flavor is great!

  • Jerrold Anderson

    I'm not usually a fan of zucchini in desserts, but these bars were surprisingly good. The lemon flavor really shines through.

  • Deon Schuppe

    I added poppy seeds for extra texture, I think it was a good add-in
