MEDITERRANEAN DIET CHOCOLATE ZUCCHINI BREAD.
Mediterranean Diet Chocolate Zucchini Bread, A delicious healthier version of a recipe that can be served alone or as a dessert.
Servings: 8 slices
Ingredients
- 1 cup zucchini
- 1 ¼ cup flour
- ¼ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- ½ tsp baking soda
- ½ tsp baking powder
- ½ tsp ground cinnamon
- ½ cup canola oil
- ¾ cup sugar
- ¼ cup milk
- 1 egg
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- ½ cup chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350F and double prep a loaf pan for nonstick. I like to line my pan with parchment that overhangs the pan on the sides. Then I spray the parchment paper with nonstick.
- In a medium bowl, use a whisk or a fork to mix together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, and cocoa powder. Set this bowl aside.
- Next, in a mixing bowl, beat together the sugar and oil until creamy. Then add the egg, milk, and vanilla extract.
- Add the dry ingredients from the first bowl to the mixing bowl. Mix this until just combined.
- Fold in the shredded zucchini and then the chocolate chips. Transfer the batter to the prepared pan and bake the bread for 50-55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Allow the bread to sit in the pan for ten minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to fully cool.
