Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
  • 1 cup vegetable oil
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 cups grated zucchini, squeezed dry
  • 1 cup chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9×5 inch loaf pans.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, granulated sugar, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract until well combined.
  4. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Gently fold in the grated zucchini and chocolate chips.
  6. Divide the batter evenly between the prepared loaf pans.
  7. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  8. Let the loaves cool in the pans for 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • Squeezing the excess moisture from the grated zucchini is key to preventing a soggy bread.
  • You can substitute some of the chocolate chips with chopped nuts like walnuts or pecans if desired.
  • For a double chocolate flavor, add 1/4 cup of unsweetened cocoa powder to the dry ingredients and use mini chocolate chips.
