Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Using a food processor*, finely grate zucchini and measure out 1 ¾ cups. Squeeze excess moisture out of the zucchini by dabbing with a paper towel. (You will end up with a little over 1 cup of grated zucchini once water is squeezed out.)
- In a large bowl whisk together eggs, coconut sugar, maple syrup, oil or butter, and vanilla.
- In a separate medium-sized bowl combine flour, baking soda, cocoa powder, and salt. Whisk until well combined.
- Add dry ingredients to wet ingredients and mix by hand until batter is smooth.
- Stir in grated zucchini and chocolate chips until just combined.
- Spray a 9 x 5 inch loaf pan with non-stick cooking spray and/or line it with parchment paper. Pour in the zucchini bread batter and spread it out evenly in the pan. Sprinkle with additional chocolate chips, if desired.
- Bake in preheated oven for 50-60 minutes or until a toothpick when inserted in comes out clean.
- Let cool to room temperature before serving. Enjoy!
Notes
- *You can also use a boxed grater if you do not have a food processor.
- To Store: Chocolate zucchini bread will last for 2-3 days if stored at room temperature and up to 1 week if stored in the refrigerator. Keep in an airtight container.
- To Freeze: Wrap the loaf in wax paper and then place it in a freezer safe bag or storage container. Zucchini bread will freeze well for up to 3-6 months.
