Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup grated zucchini (about 1 medium zucchini)
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9×5 inch loaf pan.
- In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, salt, cocoa powder, and sugar.
- Add eggs, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
- Stir in the grated zucchini and milk. The batter will be thick.
- Fold in chocolate chips if using.
- Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan.
- 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 after grating to avoid excess moisture.
- For an even fudgier texture, you can add an extra 1/4 cup of chocolate chips.
- This bread freezes well for up to 3 months.
