Notes

Incorporating sour cream into the batter not only adds a delightful tang but also creates a tender crumb due to its acidity, which helps to activate the baking soda. This key ingredient ensures that each slice of Zucchini Cheese Bread is moist and flavorful, elevating the overall texture and taste.
