I love a good zucchini bread, but traditionally the bread is so super sweet that you can only eat one slice with a ton of butter at a time…or at least you should only eat one slice at a time.  I decided to remake my old favorite but wanted to try baking it in my crockpot.  Here is my Vegan and Clean Crockpot Zucchini Bread.

Well this recipe was a labor of love for me…seeing that I made it a couple times before getting it right.  Baking in a crockpot is not for the faint of heart.  And soggy cake-like bread is actually not as tasty as one would think.  Total bummer really. The first go-around took about four hours and still wasn’t done, so I popped it into the oven.  Not good.  Second time the bottom of the bread was really “crisp”, or burnt (whatever), but the rest was fine.

This time was different.  I played with different ingredients. Decided to not go gluten free this time and I think that helped.  Getting gluten free baked goods to rise is still a true mystery to me.  Oh well, this turned out really yummy.
