Yield 2 loafs, 16 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 16

3 eggs
1 cup olive oil (YES olive)
2 cups grated and squeezed zucchini
1 ounce unsweetened chocolate, melted (August 6/2011 I used 2 ounces unsweetened chocolate)
2 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon fresh ground nutmeg
3/4 cup raisins or 3/4 cup dried cranberries
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 1/2 cups sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 cup chocolate chips (white, dark, milk optional)
1 cup chopped nuts, toasted (optional)
1 cup coconut flakes (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Lightly grease 2 9X5 loaf pans.
  • In a bowl combine eggs sugar, oil, zucchini, vanilla, and chocolate; beat well.
  • Sift together flour, baking soda, salt cinnamon and nutmeg; stir into liquid mixture to combine.
  • Blend in chips, raisins, nut and or coconut.
  • Pour into pans.
  • Bake for 50-60 minutes.

Tips:

  • Use fresh zucchini: Fresh zucchini has a higher water content, which makes for a moist and flavorful bread.
  • Grate the zucchini finely: This will help to distribute the moisture evenly throughout the bread.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing can make the bread tough.
  • Bake the bread until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: This will ensure that the bread is cooked through.
  • Let the bread cool completely before slicing: This will help to prevent the bread from crumbling.

Conclusion:

Chocolate zucchini bread is a delicious and moist quick bread that is perfect for breakfast, lunch, or a snack. It is also a great way to use up leftover zucchini. With its combination of chocolate and zucchini, this bread is sure to please everyone.
