1

Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F).

2

Grease a loaf pan (approximately 20x10cm) and line the base with parchment paper, ensuring to leave some paper hanging over the sides to lift the loaf once cooled.

3

In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, double cream, vegetable oil, lemon juice, and vanilla.

4

In a small bowl, combine the sugar and lemon zest. Rub the sugar with the lemon zest to infuse the aroma and enhance the natural lemon essence. Add to the wet ingredients.

5

Fold in the grated zucchini, then incorporate the flour and salt gently.

6

Pour the mixture into the prepared loaf pan. Bake for 40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.

7

While the loaf cools, in a small bowl, mix the powdered sugar and lemon juice, adding it one tablespoon at a time to achieve the desired consistency.

8

Once the loaf is at room temperature, pour the glaze over the top. Optionally, decorate with additional lemon zest.

Enjoy!
