Zucchini Bread just got better with a bit of cocoa! The first time I tried this easy bread recipe I was surprised by how much my family loved this bread that has the yummy texture of a pound cake. From the very first batch I baked, my Chocolate Zucchini Bread became a close contender to my famous Banana Bread … Now, that alone is a great indication of how darn good this recipe is!
I asked yesterday on Instagram if anyone had a favorite bread and I was surprised by how many people love Zucchini Bread. I grew up in Spain and we cook with a bunch of zucchini but I never had it inside of a bread until I moved here to the United States. Oh my gosh! I was shocked by how moist and good the bread was. It’s amazing what a little zucchini can do!
