Ingredients

2 cups (240 g) all purpose flour spooned and leveled
½ cup (100 g) granulated sugar
½ cup (107 g) packed light brown sugar
½ teaspoon salt
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1 tablespoon baking powder
2 large eggs room temperature
½ cup (120 mL) vegetable oil
6 tablespoons milk
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 ½ cup (300 g) shredded zucchini, about 1-2 small
1 cup (170 g) semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions

Preheat and prepare pan. Position a rack in the center of your oven. Preheat the oven to 350oF (177oC). Lightly grease a 9x5 inch loaf pan with cooking spray or line with parchment paper.
Combine dry ingredients. In a mixing bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, salt, baking powder until combined.
Combine wet ingredients. In a second mixing bowl, whisk together eggs, oil, milk and vanilla extract.
Combine wet and dry ingredients. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix together with a spatula until just combined. Fold in zucchini and chocolate chips.
Bake. Bake in a preheated 350°F (177°C) oven for 60-70 minutes until a toothpick inserted into the middle of bread comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs clinging to it (no wet batter) and top springs back to the touch when lightly touched. Remove from the oven and cool completely in the pan on a wire cooling rack.

Notes

Storage: This chocolate chip zucchini bread can be wrapped in plastic wrap or tin foil or in an airtight container, and stored at room temperature for up to 4 days. For longer storage I recommend freezing.
Freezing: You can freeze this bread for up to 3 months. Let the bread cool completely and then wrap in several layers of plastic wrap or aluminum foil. I like to then place the bread inside a larger freezer bag to help prevent freezer burn. Thaw overnight in the fridge or on the counter at room temperature if you need it deforested quickly.
Zucchini: No need to peel the zucchini or squeeze out the moisture.
