Here is how:
For my dry ingredients I used a combination of almond flour and Let’s Do Organic Tapioca Starch by Edwards & Sons. To help It rise like a cake I added some baking powder and baking soda.
Since it’s a very moist, cake like zucchini bread using bananas and eggs, I decided to drain the shredded zucchini as much as possible.
After you shred your zucchini, transfer it into a sieve on top of a bowl and sprinkle with salt. Let sit for about 10-20 minutes. Squeeze out any excess liquid in a nut bag or by hands.
Once you prepared the batter transfer into a lined loaf pan and bake in the oven for about 45-50 minutes until golden brown or a toothpick comes out clean. Let sit for about 10-20 minutes before serving.
If you are craving chocolate like me, add some chocolate chips into the batter. This bread is so yummy and a lot healthier than what we are used to.
It’s hard to believe this fluffy and moist paleo chocolate chip zucchini bread is gluten-free, dairy-free and refined sugar-free. Plus it’s made with fruits and veggies. What are you waiting for? Let’s start baking!
