Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350F. Grease two 8x4-inch loaf pans. I like to use nonstick spray with flour. Set aside.

Step 2

Place the grated zucchini in colander in the sink while you continue. Don't wring or squeeze the zucchini.4

Step 3

Whisk together sugar, eggs, vanilla, salt, and butter in a large bowl.

Step 4

Add flour, baking soda, and cinnamon. Whisk in until just combined. Batter will be very thick at this point.

Step 5

Stir in grated zucchini until just incorporated.5

Step 6

Add chocolate chips, and stir in until just combined.

Step 7

Divide batter between prepared loaf pans.

Step 8

Bake for 40-60 minutes, or until a wooden toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.6

Step 9

Cool in pans for 10 minutes.

Step 10

Run a thin knife around the edges, and remove zucchini bread out onto wire cooling racks to finish cooling.
