Categories     Breakfast & Brunch

Time 1h20m

Yield One {8½ x 4½-inch|22 x 11-cm} loaf

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 stick (½ cup) unsalted butter
¾ cup plus 2 tablespoons light brown sugar, packed
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1⅔ cups all purpose flour, spooned into measuring cup and leveled off with a knife
⅓ cup Dutch-process cocoa powder (ok to substitute natural cocoa powder)
¾ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon espresso powder or instant coffee (optional)
2 cups shredded zucchini, gently packed (you'll need about 2 medium zucchini; do not wring out the liquid)
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F degrees and grease an 8½ x 4½-inch loaf pan with nonstick cooking spray.
  • Place the butter in a large microwave-safe mixing bowl and microwave for one minute, or until just melted. Stir in the brown sugar until completely smooth. Add the eggs and vanilla and stir until incorporated. (Be sure to add the eggs after the brown sugar is mixed in, as the hot butter alone could cook the eggs.)
  • Whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, salt, baking powder, baking soda and instant coffee (if using) in a medium bowl. Add to the butter mixture and stir until well combined. It will be very thick.
  • Stir in the shredded zucchini and chocolate chips. (It will still be thick -- that's okay.)
  • Spoon the batter into the prepared loaf pan and spread evenly. Bake for 60 to 65 minutes, or until a toothpick or cake tester inserted into the center comes out clean (save for perhaps a smear from the melted chocolate chips). Let the loaf cool on a rack for about 10 minutes before turning out onto a rack to cool completely.
  • Freezer-Friendly Instructions: The bread can be frozen for up to 3 months. After it is completely cooled, wrap it securely in aluminum foil, freezer wrap or place in a freezer bag. Thaw overnight in the refrigerator before serving.

Tips:

  • Use fresh zucchini: Fresh zucchini has a higher water content which makes for a more moist bread.
  • Grate the zucchini finely: This will help to distribute the moisture evenly throughout the bread, preventing it from becoming soggy.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing can develop the gluten in the flour, making 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 Breadcake is a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for breakfast, lunch, or dessert. With its moist texture, chocolatey flavor, and hint of zucchini, this breadcake is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
