Oatmeal Cinnamon Zucchini Bread

Zucchini Bread is a hit at our house. Last summer we had two out of control zucchini plants, so we used a lot of zucchini. To make it fun, I tried out a lot of different recipes. The oatmeal zucchini bread is one of my favorites, mostly because I feel better eating it since it has oatmeal in it, oh and it tastes good too!

I made these in my new mini loaf pan! I love it because I can freeze them, and pull one loaf out a day for us to eat!
