The Ultimate Zucchini Bar image

This bar is over the top good! Everyone that likes zucchini bars, will love these! I kicked them up with lemon, spices, coconut and craisins. Yum!!! If you love lemon! I'd add another lemon. Now, if you don't want the spices, don't put them in, I would try to add cinnamon though, but don't need too. Don't have craisins? Don't use them. You could however use raisins, if desired. You could skip the lemon too. All the extra flavors are pretty optional...and you can use any nut. I think macadamia nuts would be amazing with the coconut and spices. I hope you give this a try! Enjoy!!!
