Ingredients
Scale
2 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
2 large eggs
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1/2 cup buttermilk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup grated zucchini (about 1 medium zucchini)
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips, divided
Instructions
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking soda, salt, baking powder, and cinnamon.
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, vegetable oil, buttermilk, and vanilla extract.
Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Gently fold in the grated zucchini and 3/4 cup of the chocolate chips.
Pour the batter into a greased and floured 6-quart slow cooker.
Sprinkle the remaining 1/4 cup of chocolate chips over the top of the batter.
Cover and cook on low for 2 to 3 hours, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Let the bread cool in the slow cooker for 10 minutes before carefully removing it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
Ensure your zucchini is well-drained after grating to prevent a soggy bread. Squeeze out excess moisture with paper towels.
You can add chopped nuts like walnuts or pecans along with the chocolate chips for extra texture.
For an even richer chocolate flavor, use dark chocolate chips.
