This chocolate zucchini bread is a sweet way to use up all the summer zucchini. It tastes like a rich fudgy chocolate cake but is made with a secret vegetable ingredient!

Ingredients

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F and grease a 9x5 loaf pan with nonstick baking spray. Line the pan with parchment paper for easy removal. Set aside.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the melted butter and granulated sugar until well combined. 
  • Next add the egg, milk, and vanilla. Whisk to combine. 
  • In a small bowl, combine the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, kosher salt, and cinnamon. 
  • Add the dry ingredients to the wet and mix just until they are barely combined. You don't want to overmix! 
  • Next, add the shredded zucchini and chocolate chips. Fold them gently into the batter. 
  • Transfer the batter to the prepared pan and bake it for 50-55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. 
  • Allow the zucchini bread to cool in the pan for 10 minutes and then remove it to a wire rack to cool completely. 
  • Storage: Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to three days.
