Tips:

  • For the best flavor, use fresh zucchini. If you only have access to older zucchini, be sure to grate it finely and squeeze out any excess moisture.
  • Be sure to use good quality chocolate chips. This will make a big difference in the final flavor of your bread.
  • If you don't have buttermilk, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to 1 cup of milk. Let it sit for 5 minutes before using.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing will make the bread tough.
  • Bake the bread until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. This will take about 60-70 minutes.
  • Let the bread cool completely before slicing and serving.

Conclusion:

Chocolate Chip Orange Zucchini Bread is a delicious and moist bread that is perfect for breakfast, lunch, or a snack. It's also a great way to use up any extra zucchini you have on hand. The combination of chocolate chips, orange zest, and zucchini makes this bread a unique and flavorful treat that everyone will love.
