For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding 1/2 cup of raisins or dried cranberries. To prevent the zucchini from making the cake too moist, gently squeeze out any excess water after shredding. Store the cooled cake in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or in the refrigerator for up to a week.
