Recipe - Greek Yogurt Cinnamon Zucchini Bread

Picture taken Aug. 21 ~
Kaitlyn and I made Greek yogurt cinnamon zucchini bread with some zucchini that a lady brought to church.  It was so good that we made it twice that week!

Here is a link to the recipe:

We added a cinnamon sugar layer in the middle: 1/4 c. sugar, 1 T. cinnamon. We had enough for the second batch.

We also added a crumb topping: 1/4 c. flour, 1/4 c. sugar, 2 T. butter, and cinnamon (we added a lot...like about 1/2 T.!)

It made three small loaves.
