Double Chocolate Zucchini Bread: An Incredible Ultimate Recipe You’ll Love


  • Author: Chef Ethan Sam
  • Total Time: 6 minute

Ingredients

– 2 cups grated zucchini (about 1 medium zucchini)
– 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
– ½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
– 1 cup granulated sugar
– ½ cup brown sugar
– ½ cup vegetable oil
– 3 large eggs
– 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
– 1 teaspoon baking soda
– ½ teaspoon baking powder
– ¼ teaspoon salt
– 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
– ¼ cup chopped nuts (optional)


Instructions

Making your own Double Chocolate Zucchini Bread is easier than you might think. Follow these steps to ensure a successful baking experience:

1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan.
2. Prep the Zucchini: Grate the zucchini, and if it seems watery, gently squeeze out some excess moisture using a clean kitchen towel.
3. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
4. Mix Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, beat together the granulated sugar, brown sugar, and vegetable oil. Add the eggs and vanilla extract, mixing until thoroughly combined.
5. Combine Mixtures: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix; gently fold in the zucchini.
6. Add Chocolate Chips: Fold in the chocolate chips, and nuts if desired, ensuring an even distribution throughout the batter.
7. Transfer to Pan: Pour the batter into the greased loaf pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.
8. Bake: Place the loaf in the preheated oven and bake for 50-60 minutes. A toothpick inserted in the center should come out mostly clean.
9. Cool: Remove the pan from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.

These steps will lead you to a delicious loaf of Double Chocolate Zucchini Bread that you can snack on any time you want a sweet fix!
