Chocolate Chip Zucchini Bread
Moist, delicious sweet bread with chocolate chips and zucchini with only 15 min prep time. A perfect use for that fresh zucchini from the garden!
Ingredients
- 1½ cups All-Purpose Flour
- 1 t cinnamon
- ½ t ground nutmeg
- 1 t baking soda
- ½ t baking powder
- 1 t salt
- 2 lg eggs
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- ½ cup brown sugar lightly packed
- 2 cups zucchini grated, about 2 medium sized
- ¾ cup avocado oil
- 1 t vanilla extract
- 1 cup chocolate chips
- ½ cup walnuts
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees and grease a 9x5 loaf pan.
- Grate zucchinis, I used a food processor with the grate attachment.
- In a separate bowl, combine flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and spices.
- Whisk the flour mixture together until well combined.
- In another bowl, add eggs, sugars, oil, and vanilla and mix until fully incorporated.
- Add dry ingredients to wet ingredients in 2 parts and mix until fully incorporated.
- Add the zucchini and mix well.
- Add chocolate chips and nuts reserving a few to drop on the top once the batter is in the pan.
- Pour batter into the prepared pan, add the chocolate chips and a few walnuts to the top and place in the oven for 60 minutes. Bake time will vary based on individual ovens.
- After 45 minutes, check to make sure bread isn’t getting too dark on top. If it is dark, cover with foil and continue baking.
- Bread is done when a knife, cake tester comes out clean.
- Remove the baked loaf from oven and let cool for 10 minutes before removing from pan. Set on a wire rack to finish cooling. Serve warm. Enjoy!
