Instructions

In a large mixing bowl, cream butter and both sugars together. Add eggs and vanilla, mixing until blended.
Mix in flour, cinnamon and baking powder JUST until combined. Fold in zucchini.
Pour into a greased jelly roll pan (15x10x1-inch) and bake in a 350 degree oven for 25-30 minutes.
While baking, prepare frosting. Mix powdered sugar, cinnamon, melted butter vanilla and milk until creamy. Add milk if necessary to get desired consistency.
Cool zucchini bars and frost. Cut into squares, serve, and eat!

Notes

Grated Zucchini: Use our guide on how to shred zucchini.
STORAGE: To freeze zucchini bars, store in a freezer safe container with a sheet of parchment paper between each layer of bars. You can also freeze them in individual portions double wrapped in foil and saran wrap.
Nuts. Adding chopped walnuts or pecans would be delicious in our zucchini bar recipe! I would start with 1/2 cup-1 cup of chopped nuts.
