Double Chocolate Zucchini Bread

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!

Ingredients

Servings
  • 1 2/3 cups all-purpose flour spooned and leveled
  • 1/2 cup Dutch process cocoa powder
  • 1 tsp. kosher salt
  • 1 tsp. espresso powder
  • 1/2 tsp. baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp. baking soda
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup canola oil or vegetable oil
  • 1/4 heaping cup sour cream room temperature
  • 2 large egg room temperature
  • 1 Tbsp. vanilla
  • 2 zucchini ~2 cups shredded
  • 1 cup dark chocolate chips plus more for decorating on top

Instructions

  1. 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!)
  2. 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.
  3. In a mixing bowl, add dry ingredients.
  4. Whisk and set aside.
  5. In another bowl, add the sugar, oil, sour cream, eggs and vanilla.
  6. Whisk until smooth.
  7. Add wet ingredients into the dry and mix until mostly combined.
  8. Then add the zucchini and chocolate.
  9. Mix until combined but be careful not to over mix.
  10. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, spreading evenly. Top with more chocolate chips on top.
  11. Bake for ~60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean.
  12. 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.
