- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup shredded zucchini (about 1 medium)
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9×5 inch loaf pan.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the vegetable oil, eggs, and vanilla extract.
- Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Gently fold in the shredded zucchini and chocolate chips.
- Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and spread evenly.
- Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- 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 to prevent a soggy bread.
- You can add a sprinkle of extra chocolate chips on top before baking for a more intense chocolate flavor.
- This bread is delicious served warm or at room temperature.
