Really good cake...you barely notice the zucchini. I doubled the salt but honestly it could have used a bit more for my taste. I made loaves and it's killer with some cream cheese and a skiff of marmalade.

This sounds like a great cake, and I'd love to make this for my son's birthday, but he won't eat eggs, dairy or sugars. So, what can I substitute for eggs, and can I use honey in place of the sugar?

Hi! it's a bit of a wet batter, so the eggs are needed to hold it together, but maybe you could try one of the egg substitutes out there like Bob's RedMill. As for the sugar - honey, agave or a mix of honey and applesauce should work. Curious how it turns out. Thanks!

Curious why you chose durum flour for this. How does it affect the cake? I have some whole grain durum I'm experimenting with, so thanks for any insights!

Hi! Honestly it's just what I keep on hand. I really like the texture of it...a bit more of a bite/chewiness. Hope you try it out!

OK I baked this today. Eating a slice with my tea right now. It is SO good - moist and just lightly spiced, and not too sweet but just sweet enough. LOVE it!
