1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
½ cup granulated sugar
½ cup sour cream
2 large eggs
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 tsp baking soda
¼ tsp salt

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.
Grate the zucchini and squeeze out excess moisture using a clean kitchen towel.
In a bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, sugar, and salt until well combined.
In another bowl, mix the eggs, sour cream, and vanilla until smooth. Fold in the grated zucchini.
Gently combine the wet and dry ingredients until just mixed; avoid overmixing.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and bake for 50-60 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
Let cool in the pan for about ten minutes before transferring to wire racks.
