Do you have some ripe bananas and some zucchini’s you have been wanting to use up? You must try out this grain free, dairy free, and refined sugar free chocolate chip zucchini banana bread. I like meal prepping a loaf at the beginning of the week, so that I have a quick grab and go breakfast or snack for my busy day. I like pairing mine with a big scoop of cashew butter and a side of yogurt for a balanced breakfast.

Step 1 (you don’t want to skip this step):

To speed up the process I added my zucchini’s to my food processor and pulsed a few times to dice. Now this step you don’t want to skip, add your diced zucchini to a colander and add a pinch of salt. The reason why you want to do this step is to draw out the moisture the zucchini withholds. I let mine sit for about 10 minutes and then I add it to a mesh bag (cheese cloth or nut milk bag) and squeeze out all the water from the zucchini. Now you won’t end up with a soggy bread. Now you are ready to prepare the rest of the bread.

Step 2:

Add your wet ingredients to your high powered blender and blend.

Step 3:

Add your dry ingredients to blender and blend until well incorporated.

Step 4:

Fold in the zucchini and the mini chocolate chips

Step 5:

Add your batter to a lined baking dish and top with more chocolate chips

Step 6:

Bake 350 F for 45-50 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean

Step 7:

Let cool completely before slicing
