This collection of easy zucchini recipes is perfect for using up summer’s fresh harvest – everything from zucchini bread, muffins, cupcakes, scones, and more! Whether you’re harvesting from your own garden, are hauling in boxes from your local CSA, or just taking advantage of awesome deals at the grocery store, now is the time to cook and bake with that beautiful zucchini!
Once summer gets into full swing, there is one vegetable out there that just goes berserk – zucchini. If you’ve ever planted a garden, you know exactly what I’m talking about; even if you only have one or two zucchini plants in your garden, once they start growing, you can’t pick them fast enough and they seem to quadruple in size overnight.
Now is the time to take advantage of all that beautiful product and get baking! Sure, you can grill zucchini, saute it, or stuff it, but what if you want to do something a little bit different with it. Yes, there is zucchini bread of course and I’ve got a few variations of it (regular! banana! pineapple! chocolate!), but I’m also sharing a ton of unique recipes as well, like cupcakes, scones, pickles, and more.
Enjoy the recipes and be sure to share with me your favorite way to eat or bake with zucchini in the comments below!

These scones are super moist thanks to the zucchini and have loads of color and flavor from sun-dried tomatoes, and of course, there has to be cheese. Because, of course.
