Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup vegetable oil
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 cups grated zucchini (about 2 medium zucchini)
  • 1/2 cup chocolate chips (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9×5 inch loaf pan.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract.
  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Gently fold in the grated zucchini and chocolate chips, if using.
  6. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan.
  7. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  8. Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • Ensure your zucchini is well-drained after grating to prevent a soggy bread. Squeeze out excess moisture.
  • For an extra chocolatey flavor, you can add a tablespoon of instant coffee granules to the dry ingredients.
  • This bread can be stored at room temperature in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
