Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees (F).
- Grease and flour two loaf pans, each one measuring 8 1/2″ x 4 1/2″. Set aside.
- Grate or shred enough zucchini to make 3 cups. Set aside.
- Melt the coconut oil to use in the next step.
- Beat eggs, honey, melted coconut oil, brown sugar, and vanilla until smooth.
- Add salt, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, cocoa and flour. Mix well, but don’t overmix it.
- Stir in zucchini and 2 cups of chocolate chips.
- Pour batter into prepared loaf pans and sprinkle remaining chocolate chips on top.
- Bake 60 minutes or until toothpick inserted into the middle comes out clean.
- Remove bread from oven. Let bread rest in pan for 15 minutes.
- Run knife around the edge of pans to help loosen the bread. Remove from pans and let cool completely.
Notes
- Zucchini bread freezes better and stays fresher as a whole, uncut loaf.
- When prepping, remember that grating zucchini produces smaller pieces than shredding it. If “hiding the evidence” is one of your goals, I would suggest grating it.
- To loosen the bread when removing it from the pan, use a plastic knife or thin nylon spatula rather than a metal knife so you don't scratch the pan.
- If you like to mix things up, experiment with different flavors of chips. Peanut butter, caramel, butterscotch - or combine any of these with chocolate chips.
