In reply to Jody. Hi, Jody, no you do not have to drain/squeeze the zucchini for this recipe.

In reply to Tina Basu. I'm going to try this but I've never heard of cinnamon chips. What are they and where can I find them? Maybe I could substitute dessicated instead?

I’d recently picked apples, so having an abundance, I decided to try this recipe substituting cut, sliced apples instead of zucchini. I also used allspice instead of the pumpkin pie spice. I used about 1 1/2 cups of apples and about 1/2 cup of toasted walnuts both inside the cake and the streusel. It turned out delicious! The apples compliment the cinnamon chips and spices beautifully. I’m thinking however, the next time I may just go ahead and use 2 cups of the apples.

Thanks Elizabeth – that’s so nice to hear! If my husband is home to help, he’ll use this box grater https://amzn.to/2lfDKGP If I’m making it on my own, I’ll use my food processor https://amzn.to/2l8EiOz Glad you enjoyed it.

Hi, Barbara- First off, I have to tell you that we LOVE your Lemon Blueberry Coffee Cake. It’s number 1 in my husband’s book of coffee cakes that I make. My question is about the zucchini. With what device do you shred it? I started out with a fine Microplane grater, but the result was a pile of mush, so I changed over to my coarse grater. This worked; however, I thought the grated pieces looked too large so I chopped them. The flavor was still good, but just wonder what you use to shred the zucchini.

In reply to Tonee. Hi Tonee - yes, you can use a regular cake pan. It's just easier to serve when you use the springform pan.

Can you make this without a springform pan?
