Calories: 326kcal
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 eggs
- 1 cup grated zucchini
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/3 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2/3 cup semisweet chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350ºF. Line a 9x5-inch loaf pan with parchment paper, then grease the parchment paper with cooking spray.
- Grate zucchini on the large holes of your box grater. Drain the grated zucchini through a fine-mesh sieve.
- In a large bowl, mix together the flour, salt, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
- In a separate large bowl, whisk together the eggs, vegetable oil, sugar, and vanilla until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
- Fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients just until combined.
- Fold in the grated zucchini and chocolate chips.
- Pour the batter into the prepared pan. Bake for 50 to 65 minutes until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
- Remove the loaf from the oven and allow to cool for 15 minutes in the pan. Transfer to a cooling rack to cool completely before slicing and serving.
- Enjoy!
Notes
- Don't skip draining the zucchini! If you do, your bread may wind up gummy from the extra water.
- Make sure not to over mix when you add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients. Overmixing can lead to tough bread.
- It's delicious served warm with a pat of butter.
