VEGAN CHOCOLATE ZUCCHINI BREAD



Vegan Chocolate Zucchini Bread image

Last summer my friend Ted brought me an abundance of zucchini. After putting a lot in the freezer - some mixed with other vegetables for Ratatouille, some prepared to add to other dishes, still other shredded and pre-measured to make out of season zucchini breads, soups, etc. - I baked breads: plain, pineapple with cranberries...

Time 1h10m

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 c shredded zucchini
1 c sugar
1/3 c canola oil
3 Tbsp unsweetened cocoa
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp salt
1 tsp vanilla
1 tsp cider vinegar
1/4 tsp cinnamon (optional)
1 1/2 c flour
nuts (optional)

Steps:

  • 1. Oil and dust loaf pan with flour. Preheat oven 350 degrees
  • 2. Mix shredded zucchini, sugar, oil, and vinegar. Add dry ingredients and mix well. *Add nuts if you are using.
  • 3. Pour mixture into pan and bake approximately 50 minutes. Check with toothpick and if it comes out clean , it is finished. You may need to cook a few more minutes if it isn't. * Another time I doubled the recipe, cutting the sugar a bit and baked in a bundt cake pan. It turned out quite well too.

Tips:

  • Measuring Ingredients Accurately: Use measuring cups and spoons for precise measurements to ensure the proper balance of ingredients.
  • Zucchini Preparation: Grate the zucchini with the large holes of a box grater or use a food processor for a finer texture.
  • Mixing Wet & Dry Ingredients: Mix the wet and dry ingredients separately before combining them to avoid overmixing and a dense loaf.
  • Avoiding Overmixing: Overmixing the batter can lead to a tough and dense bread. Mix only until the ingredients are well combined.
  • Baking Pan Preparation: Grease and flour the loaf pan thoroughly to prevent the bread from sticking.
  • Checking for Doneness: Insert a toothpick or skewer into the center of the loaf. It should come out clean or with just a few moist crumbs attached.
  • Cooling Before Slicing: Allow the bread to cool completely before slicing to prevent crumbling and to ensure clean slices.

Conclusion:

Vegan zucchini bread is a delightful and versatile treat that offers a delicious way to incorporate vegetables into your diet. With its moist texture, subtly sweet flavor, and the added nutritional benefits of zucchini, this bread is a guilt-free pleasure. Whether enjoyed as a snack, breakfast item, or dessert, vegan zucchini bread is sure to satisfy your taste buds and provide a healthier alternative to traditional baked goods.
