Ingredients
Scale
2 cups all-purpose gluten-free flour blend
1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
2 large eggs
1 cup vegetable oil
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup grated zucchini (about 1 medium zucchini)
1 cup chocolate chips, divided
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9×5 inch loaf pan.
In a large bowl, whisk together the gluten-free flour blend, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the sugar, eggs, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract until well combined.
Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Do not overmix.
Gently fold in the grated zucchini and 1/2 cup of the chocolate chips.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup of chocolate chips over the top.
Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
Ensure your gluten-free flour blend contains xanthan gum. If not, add 1/2 teaspoon.
For extra moisture, you can add 1/4 cup of unsweetened applesauce to the wet ingredients.
To make mini loaves, reduce baking time to 30-35 minutes.
Store cooled bread in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
