Ingredients
 

  • 1 1/4 cup grated zucchini lightly squeezed
  • 1 3/4 cups gluten free all purpose baking flour
  • 3/4 cup brown sugar can substitute coconut sugar
  • 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 3/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/3 cup soy milk unsweetened
  • 2 teaspoons vinegar
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce
  • 1/3 cup melted coconut oil can substitute vegan butter
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup dark chocolate chips

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 425F.
  • Combine the soy milk and vinegar in a small glass and set aside for 5 minutes.
  • Grate the zucchini and lightly squeeze out the excess water with a paper towel or clean tea towel and set aside.
  • In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the sugar, applesauce, melted coconut oil, vanilla and the soy milk mixture.
  • Add in the dry ingredients. Using a spatula, fold the wet and dry ingredients together until a batter forms.
  • Add in the grated zucchini and chocolate chips and fold to combine.
  • Transfer batter to a lined 9×5 or 8 1⁄2 x 4 1⁄2 loaf pan and smooth out the top. Top with a few additional chocolate chips, as desired.
  • Bake for 8 minutes, then lower the temperature and bake an additional 52-60 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
  • Let cool in the pan for 20 minutes, then lift out and let cool completely on a wire rack before slicing.

Notes

  • Soy milk works best because the high protein content keeps the loaf fluffy, but any kind of non-dairy milk will work.
