Chocolate Chip Zucchini Bread!

Chocolate Chip Zucchini Bread!

My wonderful friend, Erin passed along her recipe for Zucchini Bread and included one of her home-grown zucchini's to bake with (it's the size of a melon, see below)! 

I adapted her recipe a bit to include some whole wheat flour and chocolate chips....because 99.9% of my recipes include chocolate so it has to be in there somewhere :) I think this turned out preeeeeeetty darn great and baked perfectly, too.

Makes: 2 loaves

Time: ~1 hour

Directions

Preheat oven to 325 F

In Mixer: beat 3 eggs
Add: 2 cups sugar
1 cup canola oil
2 tsp. vanilla
2 cups grated zucchini

In a separate bowl, sift together:

1 cup all-purpose flour
2 cups whole wheat flour
2 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. salt
3 tsp. cinnamon
1/4 tsp. nutmeg

- Add dry ingredients to mixer, mix into batter

- Stir in a generous 1/2 cup of chocolate chips 
- Pour into two lightly greased bread pans (I sprinkled chopped walnuts on top as shown below)
**Bake both loaves for 50-60 mins**













HAPPY BAKING!
