Zucchini plants are very prolific and grow in most soils. My garden always has at least 6 plants so that I have enough zucchini to make all the goodies that I want to. This Chocolate Zucchini Bread is a winner in both taste, eye appeal, and getting veggies in your diet.

My one son loves to garden and he brought a bucketful of zucchini in the other day. So I made this bread. I didn’t even have to eat any since he took care of that for me. He is both gluten and dairy free and this zucchini bread tasted just like the “normal” ones do.
Chocolate Zucchini Quick Bread, THM S, Sugar-free, Dairy free, Gluten Free, & Low Carb
- 2/3 cup Brown Sugar Sweetener Substitute or Swerve Brown Sugar
- 1/3 cup butter, softened, I used dairy free butter
- 2 eggs, room temperature
- 1 tablespoon vanilla
- 1 2/3 cups finely chopped zucchini
- 1/3 cup oat flour, gluten free
- 3/4 cup cocoa powder
- 3/4 cup THM baking blend or almond flour
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 3/4 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 3/4 cup Sugar-free chocolate chocolate chips
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. In a large mixer bowl, beat sweetener, butter, egg, and vanilla until well blended. Mix in chopped zucchini. Add flour, cocoa, baking blend, salt, baking soda, and baking powder. Mix well. Stir in chocolate chips. Grease and flour a bread pan. Line with parchment paper. Spoon bread into pan. Bake zucchini bread for 45-50 minutes or until toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool for 10 minutes and remove from the pan. 10 slices.

I use a Tupperware food chopper to chop the zucchini. This handy little tool saves a lot of time in the kitchen.

Here the liquid mixture is mixed with the chopped zucchini. When the zucchini is chopped like this you can hardly see it in the bread.

The batter will be thick like the above post. This makes the best zucchini bread!

If you line the bread pan with parchment paper it will be much easier to remove the bread from the pan. Parchment paper is a baker’s best friend. Did you know that if you make parchment paper wet and then crunch it in a ball to remove the excess water, it will make it easier to line your pan.

Yum! I don’t tolerate oats very well. They make me bloated. Wondering if I could just sub in with THM baking mix for the oat flour?
yes, you can. I use just a bit of oats to get a more normal texture.
Did you know there is oat fiber in the THM Baking Blend?
yes, I do know there is oat fiber in the baking blend. What kind of baking blend do you use for other baked items?
This looks fantastic! Any suggestions on replacing the oat flour and the Baking Blend? Oat allergies over here…
Briana Thomas has a nut free baking blend recipe on her blog.
Sorry I read your comment wrong. However, Briana Thomas’s baking mix does not use oat flour, but it does use oat fiber. Her blog post does list ingredient subsitutions.

No parchment in the house: Any thoughts on using some foil? And what’s the stance on frozen Zucchini? Should it be drained or not?
drain frozen zucchini very well. I have never tried foil.
Can you sub coconut oil for the butter?
Delicious! Made last night. Will be making another batch today. Really checks all the boxes for me!
