Ingredients:

  • 1.5 cups (190g) all-purpose flour
  • 0.5 cup (45g) Dutch-process cocoa powder
  • 1 tsp (5g) baking soda
  • 0.5 tsp (3g) salt
  • 0.5 cup (120g) plain Greek yogurt
  • 0.5 cup (115g) coconut oil
  • 0.75 cup (150g) coconut sugar
  • 2 large (110g) eggs
  • 1 tsp (5ml) vanilla extract
  • 2 cups (230g) grated zucchini, squeezed dry
  • 0.75 cup (130g) mini semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions:

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x5 inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.
  2. Grate the zucchini and use a clean kitchen towel or paper towels to gently press out the excess water.
  3. Sift together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt in a medium bowl to remove clumps.
  4. In a large bowl, whisk together the melted oil and sugar until combined.
  5. Add the eggs one at a time, whisking vigorously after each addition, then stir in the Greek yogurt and vanilla extract until smooth.
  6. Gently fold the sifted dry ingredients into the wet mixture using a silicone spatula.
  7. Fold in the squeezed zucchini and chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
  8. Pour batter into the prepared loaf pan and bake for 55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
