Instructions
- First, preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a bread pan with parchment paper.
- Grate zucchini. Once grated, place zucchini on some paper towels and squeeze out all excess water.
- In a large mixing bowl, add grated zucchini, mashed banana, eggs, nut butter, coconut sugar and vanilla extract. Stir to combine.
- Once combined, add in almond flour, tapioca flour and baking soda. Stir to combine.
- Then, fold in chocolate chips.
- Pour batter into lined bread pan. Garnish with extra chocolate chips if desired. Place a sheet of aluminum foil loosely over bread.
- Bake for 50 minutes. Then, remove tin foil on top and bake another 15 to 20 minutes.
- Finally, remove from oven when a toothpick inserted into bread comes out clean.
- Cool completely before slicing and serving.
Notes
- After grating zucchini, squeeze out all excess moisture.
- Creamy almond butter and cashew butter both work well. Peanut butter works great too for a non Paleo option.
- Cornstarch or arrowroot starch can replace tapioca flour.
- Line bread pan with parchment paper that hangs over the edge of the pan. This allows you to remove the cooled bread after it has baked.
- Zucchini banana bread is done when a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
- Cool completely before slicing into.
- Store leftovers loosely covered at room temperature for up to 3 days or in the fridge for up to 5 days.
- This bread can be stored frozen as well.
