Author: Barbara Schieving

Ingredients

  • 2 cups flour plus 2 tablespoons more to coat chocolate chips
  • cup unsweetened cocoa powder sifted
  • 1 ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup sugar
  • cup canola oil
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ¾ cup non-fat Greek yogurt or sour cream*
  • 3 cups grated zucchini*
  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease and flour 2 loaf pans (I used 4 mini loaf pans) and set aside.
  • Combine flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt in a bowl and whisk to combine. Set aside.
  • In large mixing bowl, beat sugar, oil, eggs, and vanilla until well blended. Add yogurt and beat to combine. Add dry ingredients and mix just until combined.
  • In a small bowl or Ziploc bag, toss chocolate chips with 2 tablespoons flour. Add chocolate chips and zucchini to batter and stir just until blended.
  • Divide batter between pans. Bake for 50-60 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Cool 10 minutes in pan on a wire rack; remove from pan, and cool completely on a wire rack before cutting.
  • (Bake mini loaves for 30 - 35 minutes or muffins for 18 minutes.)
  • *Tip: I like to use a salad spinner to spin out excess water in the zucchini. You could also wrap it in towel and squeeze out excess water.

Notes

*I often use reduced fat sour cream, but never non-fat sour cream.
