This Chocolate Protein Zucchini Bread is so good you won’t even realize it has added protein. Enjoy it with breakfast, lunch, snack or even dessert. Warm it up and spread some butter on top or mix it in with your favorite protein packed yogurt as a way to get in some added greens.

It’s also easily customizable by adding your favorite nuts, spice and dried fruit.

Ingredients and Substitutes:

Zucchini

Grate your zucchini first on a standard cheese grater and let it sit out while you prep the remaining ingredients. Do not squeeze out any of the liquid as this helps keeps the bread moist.

Greek Yogurt

You can use any brand of nonfat Greek Yogurt. I prefer Fage and think it tastes the best.

Protein Powder

I use Chocolate Gold Standard Whey. You can swap with your favorite chocolate protein powder.

Chocolate Chips

Using Lily’s Dark Chocolate Baking Chips.

Instructions:

Preheat and Prep

Preheat the oven to 350F.

Line a baking loaf pan with wax paper and spray with nonstick spray. I use Chosen Foods avocado spray.

Shred your zucchini first and let it sit out while you prep the remaining ingredients. Do not squeeze out any of the liquid as this helps keeps the bread moist.

Combine Ingredients

Place all wet ingredients in a bowl and mix. Leave zucchini for last.

Place all dry ingredients in a separate bowl and mix.

Combine wet and dry ingredients and fold in zucchini.

Place mixture into loaf pan and top with chocolate chips.

Bake

Bake at 350 for 50 minutes until a toothpick comes out clean.
