Dark Chocolate Zucchini Bread Sweetened with Honey

zucchini

honey

coconut oil or butter (or oil

vanilla

eggs

whole wheat pastry flour

cocoa powder + extra for dusting pans

baking soda

salt

baking powder

chocolate chocolate chips (divided)

Heat oven to 350 degrees. Grease two 8-inch loaf pans and lightly coat with cocoa powder (I recommend adding a piece of parchment paper to line the bottom and up the long sides, coating that with the cocoa, as the very middle bottoms tend to stick, even with the coating).

To the bowl of a large mixer, add the zucchini and next four ingredients. Stir well.

Add the remaining ingredients, except the chocolate chips, mixing until you have a smooth batter.

Fold in 2/3 cup of the chocolate chips.

Pour batter into prepared pans, dividing evenly and making sure that the chocolate pieces are evenly dispersed (they tend to fall to the bottom of the bowl). Sprinkle the remaining 1/3 c. chocolate chips evenly between the two loaves.

Bake for 40-43 minutes until puffed and centers look done (you can do a toothpick test, but the chocolate pieces will be melty, so be aware that it won't come out completely clean).

Cool 5-10 minutes in the pans, then remove to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.

This recipe is amazing!  I do make one adjustment...I use apple sauce instead of oil.  I made these for everyone at work last year and they loved them.  One person has a gluten allergy so I used oat flour (I didn't have any on hand so I just ground up oats in my Vitamix!). This year, they kept asking me for more so I just recently made another batch.  I make muffins (recipe makes 24) since it's easier to give out at work (or to freeze).  I bake them on 375 for 20 minutes and they come out perfect.  I've even used different chips in the recipe including peanut butter chips.  I just LOVE chocolate and peanut butter together!  Thank you for creating such a guilt free delicious recipe!!

OMG Jami, I made this chocolate Zucchini bread today as I was looking for a healthier alternative. I used Oat Flour and it turned out amazing. I will be making this over and over again. The chocolate flavour is very chocolatey which I love. Thank you for a great recipe.
