CHOCOLATE MARBLE ZUCCHINI BREAD RECIPE BY TASTY
This twist on zucchini bread combines the best of both worlds: cinnamon and spice with decadent triple chocolate. Don't worry about squeezing excess liquid from the zucchini - it will keep the bread moist! Before you bake, swirl the two batters together with a skewer or knife for a perfect marbling effect. For the best slice, let the bread cool completely before serving - but you might not be able to wait that long!

Steps:
- Bread: Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Butter a 10-by-5-inch loaf pan. Line with parchment, leaving an overhang on two long sides, then butter and flour paper.
- Whisk together flour, sugar, cocoa, baking powder, salt, and baking soda. In another bowl, stir together butter, eggs, vanilla, and zucchini. Stir into dry mixture, then fold in chocolate. Pour into pan, smoothing top with a spatula. Bake until a skewer inserted into the center comes out clean, about 1 hour 20 minutes. Let cool 20 minutes on a wire rack, then remove from pan and cool completely.
- Glaze: In a small bowl, combine sugar and milk. Whisk until smooth. Pour glaze over bread, then sprinkle with poppy seeds. Let stand until set, about 20 minutes, then cut into slices to serve. Bread will keep, unglazed, at room temperature for up to 3 days.
Tips:
- Use a combination of flours: This recipe uses a blend of all-purpose flour and oat flour, which gives the bread a tender and moist texture. If you don't have oat flour, you can make your own by grinding old-fashioned oats in a blender or food processor until they resemble flour.
- Grate the zucchini finely: This will help to distribute the moisture evenly throughout the bread and prevent it from becoming too dense.
- Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing can develop the gluten in the flour, which will make the bread tough. Mix the batter just until the ingredients are combined.
- Bake the bread in a loaf pan: This will help to give the bread a uniform shape and prevent it from becoming too dry.
- Let the bread cool completely before slicing: This will help to prevent the bread from crumbling.
Conclusion:
This chocolate zucchini bread is a delicious and healthy way to use up summer zucchini. It's moist, tender, and full of chocolate flavor. The bread is also gluten-free and refined sugar-free, making it a healthier option for those with dietary restrictions. With its combination of chocolate and zucchini, this bread is sure to be a hit with everyone at your table.
