Double Chocolate Zucchini Bread
Report
My Double Chocolate Zucchini Bread is full of rich, indulgent chocolate-y flavors in each bite and has a moist, tender, soft crumb. It's simple to prepare, you don't even need to squeeze out the excess water from the zucchini in this recipe! It bakes perfectly every single time and a great way to bake with zucchini!

Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F and grease/flour a 9x5 inch loaf pan or line with parchment. (Pro tip: if using the greasing and flour method, try dusting the pan with cocoa powder instead of plain flour!)
- Grate the zucchini on the small holes on a box grater. (No need to peel the zucchini or blot out the excess moisture, we want that moisture in the loaf!) set aside.
- In a mixing bowl, add dry ingredients.
- Whisk and set aside.
- In another bowl, add the sugar, oil, sour cream, eggs and vanilla.
- Whisk until smooth.
- Add wet ingredients into the dry and mix until mostly combined.
- Then add the zucchini and chocolate.
- Mix until combined but be careful not to over mix.
- Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, spreading evenly. Top with more chocolate chips on top.
- Bake for ~60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean.
- Cool, slice, enjoy! (Really good with flaky sea salt on top, or spread some butter or peanut butter on a slice!)
Notes
- Store at room temperature for 2-3 days, in the fridge for up to 1 week, or freeze for up to 3 months.
