Ingredients

  • 1 3/4 cups All-purpose flour (210g)
  • 1 teaspoon Baking powder (4g)
  • 1 teaspoon Baking soda (4g)
  • 4 tablespoon Unsweetened cocoa powder (20g)
  • ½ teaspoon Salt (3g)
  • 1 Cup Light brown sugar (205g) packed
  • 2/3 Cup Oat milk (156ml)
  • 1/2 Cup Neutral oil (120ml)
  • 1 tbsp Apple cider vinegar (15ml)
  • 8 Oz Zucchini (225g) from 1 large or 2 small, about 2 cups, shredded
  • 1/2 Cup Dark chocolate chips (90g) or chopped walnuts

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9 × 5 inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.
  • Shred the zucchini using a box grater. Gently blot with paper towels to remove excess moisture—no need to squeeze completely dry. Set aside.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cocoa powder, and salt until well combined.
  • In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the brown sugar, oat milk, oil, and apple cider vinegar until smooth.
  • Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and stir until no lumps remain.
  • Gently stir in the shredded zucchini and chocolate chips or walnuts, if using.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top. Bake for 55–65 minutes, or until a skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Let the loaf cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool for at least 20 more minutes. Cool completely before slicing.
