An option for your garden Zucchini

Ingredients

  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 3 eggs
  • 2 cups white sugar
  • 1 cup vegetable oil
  • 2 cups grated zucchini
  • 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 cup sour cream

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease two 9 x 5 inch loaf pans.
  2. Beat together eggs, sugar, and oil. Blend in the grated zucchini, and then the sour cream. Mix in the flour, baking powder, soda, and cinnamon. Stir in chocolate. Pour batter into prepared pans.
  3. Bake for 80 minutes. Cool on wire rack.

I love Zucchini bread, it is actually one of the two ways I only like it. The other way is the zucchini crisp recipe I posted last summer. I found this recipe and decided to try it because I like the idea of the sour cream in it. This recipe was good, very moist but maybe not sweet enough for me. I also didn't have enough chocolate chips which might be the problem. But if you want to make some bread muffins with your garden zucchini this recipe is worth a try. I'm going to try to make another loaf with another recipe and will let you know if I prefer that recipe. It is also nice to make muffins and freeze them, so you can always have something sweet to go with your morning coffee!
