"This Chocolate Chip Zucchini Bread is deliciously moist and perfectly sweetened, with morsels of chocolate throughout too!"

NotesTo shred zucchini; use a box grater. To pure zucchini; use a food processor and pulse until somewhat smooth, but not too fine.

You can also use frozen zucchini, just make sure it's thoroughly defrosted before adding it to the recipe.

The bread is perfectly baked when it's golden brown and the top is firm but just a bit soft in the middle. Remove from oven when a toothpick inserted comes out a little sticky, but not wet. The bread will continue to cook a little in the pan after it's removed from the oven.

FYI: I cooled this bread in the pan for a couple of hours and it didn't stick to the pan (at all) and came out perfectly.
