Ingredients

cooking spray

1 cup all purpose flour (I used unbleached)

1 cup white whole wheat flour (regular whole wheat flour would work)

1/2 cup brown sugar (not packed)

1 ⅛ tsp baking soda

1 tsp vanilla

1/2 tsp salt

1/2 cup semi sweet chocolate chips

1 large egg (beaten)

2 tbsp melted butter

1 cup apple sauce

1 ½ cups shredded zucchini (not packed, not squeezed (from about 1 1/4 large)

Directions

Preheat oven to 325°F. Spray a 9x5-inch loaf pan with cooking spray.

Combine flour, sugar, baking soda, and salt in a large bowl. Mix well.

Add chocolate chips and gently mix to combine.

In a medium bowl, mix egg, vanilla, melted butter, apple sauce and zucchini. Add to the flour mixture and stir until just blended.

Pour batter into the prepared 9x5-inch loaf pan. Bake 45-55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

Cool for about 10 minutes. Remove loaf from pan and let it cool before slicing.
