I did this in a 10" DO, but it would probably be better in a 12". The result would be thinner and cook better.

Boy, was it good. This is the recipe I am cooking at the ITG DO Workshop.

Hey Mike,

That recipe sounds great! Zucchini Bread is a great quick bread for the DOs. My friend won a dessert cook-off with her recipe (it doesn't have pineapple though...I'll have to talk to her) . Most folks don't realize that you can cook dishes like this while camping. Yum.

I'm sure everyone will enjoy it at the ITG DO workshop!

Keep the coals hot,
Joanne
