I personally like to cut into this chocolate zucchini bread before it has totally cooled off. The chocolate chips will be kind of melted and wonderful in every bite! Can you taste the zucchini? No, you cannot taste the zucchini. Zucchini is a wonderful addition to breads because it contributes to the moisture of the bread without adding a bunch of bad calories and fat.
But then, of course, as most bread recipes do… the flavor in this bread tends to intensify when wrapped up and served the next day. It’s a mighty delicious zucchini bread to make for chocolate lovers!
Is it breakfast, or is it dessert? Or is a snack? The answer is “all the above!” If you want an excuse to eat chocolate for breakfast, then this chocolate zucchini bread will do the trick. If you need dessert, the chocolate will satisfy that dessert craving. And then, of course, you can eat it any time of day as a snack too. Enjoy!
How to freeze zucchini bread:
Wrap your chocolate zucchini bread loaf tightly in plastic wrap or foil, and then slip it into a large freezer zip baggie before storing in the freezer. Freeze for up to 6 months. Then take out and thaw when ready to eat.
