Name: Gluten-Free Chocolate Avocado Zucchini Bread
Yield: Makes 2 loaves
Ingredients: 5 cups of Bob’s Red Mill 1 to 1 gluten-free baking flour; 2 teaspoons of baking soda; 1 tablespoon of baking powder; ½ teaspoon of Kosher salt; 1/3 cup of cocoa powder; 1 peeled and seeded avocado; ¼ cup of coconut oil; 1 cup of maple syrup; 4 eggs; 1/3 cup of melted semi-sweet chocolate; 3 shredded zucchini; ½ cup of chopped walnuts; 1 cup of semi-sweet chocolate chips + more for garnish

When I was brainstorming about creating this recipe, I always knew I wanted to make a zucchini bread, but never thought of adding in zucchini until I read about avocado bread. There are tons of recipes for avocado bread, so I figured I would sort of combine the two and mix in some chocolate.

This Gluten-Free Chocolate Avocado Zucchini Bread Recipe takes about 25 minutes to prepare and about an hour in the oven at 350°. It’s a very dense bread so it requires more time in the oven and a little extra time cooling to room temperature, but I promise every send of making this bread is worth it. It is ridiculously moist and bursting with yummy chocolate flavor, not to mention the fat in it is great since it’s avocado and coconut oil.

If you are looking for a really tasty gluten free bread, look no further! This Gluten-Free Chocolate Avocado Zucchini Bread is the best!
