Notes
- You want to drain any extra water out of the zucchini. Otherwise, the bread will end up a bit “wet”. Place the shredded zucchini in a strainer and let sit for 5 minutes. Then, press it down to get any extra water out.
- Make sure to use a silicone baking pan, or line your tin pan with parchment paper. Otherwise, the dairy-free zucchini bread is hard to take out.
- You can top the bread with extra chocolate chips if you wish, or sprinkle on some ground cinnamon before baking.
- Avocado oil works best in the recipe but melted coconut oil can be used. Just know that it changes the texture slightly.
- Enjoy the zucchini bread as is, with some dairy-free butter, or even topped with peanut butter!
