Eggless Chocolate, Zucchini, Nut Bread

Ingredients:

  1. 1+ 3/4 cups All Purpose Flour + some more for dusting the nuts and chocolate chips
  2. 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  3. 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  4. 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg + 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon (adjust amount and spice as per your taste)
  5. 3/4 teaspoon salt
  6. 6-7 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
  7. 3 tablespoons hazelnut powder, coarsely ground (I ground up the nuts at home)
  8. 1/2 cup semi sweet chocolate chips (use mini ones; they sink less) – use vegan chips for a vegan version of this bread
  9. 1 cup walnuts or any other nuts you would like to use, chopped
  10. 3/4 cup muscovado or dark brown sugar
  11. 3/4 cup oil
  12. 2 tablespoons flax seed meal
  13. 1 teaspoon Almond Extract or Vanilla Extract
  14. 1.5 cups zucchini, peeled and grated, (about 1 zucchini)
  15. 1 banana, mashed
  16. 1/4 cup slivered almonds, to top the bread (optional)
  17. Might need a few spoons of milk or water or orange juice



Preparation:

Soak the flaxseed meal in about 4 tablespoons of water for about 10 minutes.

Pre heat oven to 350 degree F. Generously grease and flour a 9″ loaf dish.

Sift flour, baking soda, baking powder, nutmeg, cinnamon & salt. Combine the cocoa powder and hazelnut powder to the sifted mix.

Dust the walnuts and chocolate chips with a couple of spoons of flour and set aside.

Beat oil, sugar, almond/vanilla extract and the soaked flaxseed meal together. Combine the sifted flour mix in small amounts to the oil and sugar mix in parts and beat while scraping the sides of the bowl. Continue doing this till all the sifted flour is incorporated and well combined. Add little amounts of milk/water/juice if the mixture gets too dry and crumbly.

Add the mashed banana and zucchini to the bowl and mix well with a wooden spoon/spatula, till well combined. The dough is going to be be sticky and gooey.

Gently fold in the nuts and chocolate chips.  Spoon the dough into the loaf pan. Top with the almonds.

Bake for about 50-60 minutes or till a toothpick inserted comes out clean.

Let the bread rest in the loaf dish for about 10 – 15 minutes. Turn it over carefully and place it on a wire rack and let it cool completely before slicing it.
