Chocolate Chip Zucchini Bread Recipe

September 15, 2024 2 Comments

Got zucchini? I have a chocolate chip zucchini bread recipe for you.

This uses up 3 medium zucchini! I know people have way too many zucchini in August and this bread will freeze well.

Adding zucchini to baked goods makes them juicier without the need for butter or oil. Zucchini has magical properties! But you still need to use a little oil and sugar to make them taste good and not gummy.

I also added my favorite chocolate chips.

I promise I’m not sponsored by Nestle’s Toll House Artisanal Chocolate Chip Collection (but maybe I should contact Nestle). I LOVE THEM. The flavor and texture are different and unique and I like them better than Ghiradelli’s.

Obviously, if I use chocolate chips, this zucchini bread is more of a dessert. If you’re looking for lighter baked goods, try my Zucchini Breakfast Muffins and my Healthy Oatmeal Banana Blueberry Muffins.

To grate zucchini in a snap, I use my Cuisinart with the grater wheel.

If I haven’t convinced you to buy a Cuisinart yet, I probably can’t. I always use one when I cook because it saves me time and I can put it in the dishwasher. Chop, grate, puree… everyone who cooks at home should have one!

This recipe calls for two 8.5 x 4.5 x 2.5cm loaf pans. If you don’t have them, use what you have. The variation in size and materials is AMAZING. Check out this guide Bread pan guide to help you navigate the madness.

Fill the mold to approximately 2/3 of its capacity and monitor the cooking time.
