Double Chocolate Zucchini Bread image

This is one of those recipes I tried for something different, and it became more popular with my family than the original version of zucchini bread I was making.

Time 1h40m

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 large eggs
1/3 c honey
1/2 c vegetable oil
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/3 c baking cocoa or dutch-process cocoa
1 2/3 c all purpose flour
2 c shredded, unpeeled zucchini (gently pressed between layers of a clean tea towel to get rid of excess moisture)
1 chocolate chips

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat the oven to 350°F; spray an 8 1/2" x 4 1/2" loaf pan with nonstick cooking spray .
  • 2. In a large mixing bowl, beat together the eggs, honey, oil, sugar, and vanilla until smooth.
  • 3. Sift in the salt, baking soda, baking powder, cocoa, and flour, stir until well combined.
  • 4. Stir in the zucchini and chocolate chips. Pour into prepared pan.
  • 5. Bake the bread for 65 to 75 minutes, until the loaf tests done (a toothpick or cake tester inserted into the center will come out clean, there maybe a tiny bit of chocolate on the toothpick from the melted chips, that is ok).
  • 6. Remove the bread from the oven, and let it cool for 10 to 15 minutes before turning it out of the pan onto a rack. Cool completely before slicing; store in an air tight container.
