Ingredients

Scale

2 medium zucchinis (grated)
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
1 tsp cinnamon
2 large eggs
1/2 cup vegetable oil
2 tsp vanilla extract
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.
Grate the zucchinis and squeeze out excess moisture using a clean kitchen towel.
In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until smooth.
In another bowl, combine the eggs, vegetable oil, vanilla extract, and grated zucchini until well mixed.
Fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until just moistened; do not overmix.
Gently fold in the chocolate chips.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and bake for 50-60 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Allow cooling for ten minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
