(Courtesy of nancycreative.com)

Ingredients:
2 c. all-purpose flour
2 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. salt
2 eggs
1/2 c. canola oil
2/3 c. sugar
1/2 c. buttermilk
Juice of 2 lemons, divided
Zest of 1 lemon
1 c. grated zucchini
1 c. powdered sugar

Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Blend together flour, baking powder and salt; set aside.

Beat 2 eggs well then add oil and sugar; blend well.  Add buttermilk, juice of 1 lemon and zest.  Mix well.  Fold in the zucchini.

Add wet ingredients to the dry ingredients.  Blend together but do not overmix.

Pour the batter into a prepared bread loaf pan.  Bake for 45 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.  Cool in the pan for 10 minutes then remove to a wire rack.

Mix together powdered sugar and the juice of 1 lemon.  Mix until well blended.  Spoon over the cooled loaf.

Note~  I used a white whole wheat flour in this recipe and it worked well.  I also got some juicy lemons so it tastes very lemony.
