The Perfect Summer Bake

Summer is the season of zucchini. Your garden and your neighbor’s too, if we’re being honest, are overflowing with sweet, ripe zucchini. If you’ve already had it with your omelet, fritters, pasta, and lasagna, that means it’s time to have it in your chocolate bread. Simple logic. 

Get your vegetable intake with chocolate!I know this might sound wrong on so many levels, but bear with me! The most amazing thing about this bread is that it’s half veggie, yet it only tastes like chocolate with an aromatic hint of spices. The zucchini is here to make this bread moist and tender. Even the pickiest eaters won’t detect it!

Ridiculously easy bake,seriously.Mix your dry ingredients in one bowl. Mix your wet ingredients in another bowl. Gently fold your dry ingredients into your wet ingredients. Pop it in the oven, and congratulations! You’ve got yourself the most delectable double chocolate zucchini bread out there!

It’s chocolate on chocolate!Admit it, the statement alone is tantalizing! First, you have your melted chocolate chips engulfed in silky and moist chocolatey bread. This is what dreams are made of! This double chocolate beauty will sure bewitch you and excite all your senses!

One Amazing Base, Many Fantastic Options

My Double Chocolate Zucchini Bread is great on its own, but don’t be afraid to experiment with flavors and put your own touches on this super-easy recipe! Here are some suggestions:

If you’re in the mood for chocolate and nothing but chocolate, we’ve got you covered. You can omit the spice mix and add half a teaspoon of espresso powder instead. Don’t worry. You won’t actually taste the coffee, but it will give a certain depth to the chocolate’s flavor. I actually learned this trick from my grandma, and I use it in most of my chocolate baked goods.

If the double chocolate zucchini bread is already too much for you, swap half a cup of chocolate chips for chopped walnuts or pecans. You can’t go wrong with roasted, crunchy walnuts drowning in melted, moist chocolate! Dried cranberries or raisins might surprise you in this one.

The bottom line is to be creative and try the combinations that strike your fancy.

Tips for a Great Double Chocolate Zucchini Bread

1. To cut prep time, you can use a food processor to grate your zucchini.
2. There’s no need to peel the zucchini. I understand the urge to remove everything that is green from your dessert, but trust me. It’s completely unnecessary. The zucchini will completely melt into the bread, and no one will be able to tell it was there in the first place!
3. Use two packed cups of zucchini. Remember, the moisture in this bread primarily comes from the zucchini. So make sure that your cups are heaping.
4. Mix gently! I cannot repeat how important this tip is. Make sure that your moves are soft and gentle. Sometimes, mixing roughly will cause it to fall in the middle.
5. Do not overmix! That is the rule of thumb when baking anything with wheat flour. Over-mixing the batter will form gluten, which in turn hardens the mixture. No one wants a rough, stiff chocolate loaf!
6. Wait completely for it. let it cool down before slicing it. It’s hard, I know. But good things happen to those who wait. If you slice it while it’s still warm, you might risk ruining its structure and texture. Be patient and enjoy this decadent delight at the right time.
