I am not a huge lover of bananas, but I do love a good banana bread/muffin. I love it even more when you add chocolate to it. I learned this when a friend made me some banana muffins with chocolate chips in them and I knew that I would be adding chocolate chips to my banana bread recipe!
Zucchini Banana Chocolate Chip Bread
I made 3 loaves in mini loaf pans and 1 regular size loaf pan. This bread freezes well for up to 1 month.
Ingredients
- 3 eggs
- 3/4 cup vegetable oil
- 2/3 cup packed brown sugar
- 1 cup white sugar
- 1 cup grated zucchini
- 2 bananas, mashed
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
- 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup chocolate chips (plus a few more for on top of the bread)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Grease and flour two 8x4 inch bread loaf pans. You could also use smaller pans (as seen in the photo).
- In a mixing bowl, beat eggs with a hand mixer until light yellow and frothy. Add oil, brown sugar, white sugar, grated zucchini, bananas, and vanilla; blend together until well combined. Whisk together the flour, cinnamon, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Add the dry mix at a time to the mixing bowl and mix until combined. Stir in the chocolate chips. Divide the batter evenly between the two prepared loaf pans.
- Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, about 40 - 50 minutes. Allow to cool in the loaf pans on a wire rack before removing and serving.
