I'm a work-at-home dad who enjoys cooking, learning everything I can about the culinary world and sharing it with you. To learn more about me...
I use essentially the same recipie as above. I use 2 1/2 C sugar, 1 tsp vanilla, 1/2 tsp baking powder, 1 tsp Cinnamin. However, every time I cook it any more it sinks in the middle so badly that there is about 1/4 to 1/2 inch oh bread on all sides of the loaf pan and the rest sorta conceals in the bottom. I should say I have had this happen at 5,000 ft and at 7500 ft elevation. When I first started with the bread years ago it did not happen. Now it happens with every batch. I’ve tried leaving all the fluid in and draining different proportions of the fluid out. Can you tell me what in the world I am doing wrong? Sometimes I use fresh ground zuchini and sometimes frozen.
