Chocolate Chip Zucchini Bread

This moist, chocolately zucchini bread recipe makes 1 loaf pan. You can easily double the recipe for a 10 inch tube pan, or make muffins out of it instead.
Prep Time10 minutes
Total Time1 hour 10 minutes

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups all purpose flour
  • 3/4 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 3/4 tsp cinnamon
  • 5/8 tsp salt
  • 1 tbsp cocoa powder
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 1 1/2 cups finely grated zucchini
  • 3/4 cup vegetable oil
  • 2 large eggs
  • 3/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions

  • Pre-heat your oven to 350°F. Lightly grease a loaf pan and set aside.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, salt, cocoa powder and brown sugar.
  • Finely grate 1 1/2 cups of zucchini. Gently squeeze out any excess water.
  • Add the zucchini, vegetable oil and eggs to the dry ingredients, and stir until just combined.
  • Stir in the chocolate chips.
  • Transfer the batter to your prepared loaf pan. Bake for 60-70 minutes, or until a tester inserted into the centre of the loaf comes out clean.
