This is the best Vegan Chocolate Zucchini Bread that is moist, rich, fudgy and tastes like actual chocolate cake! The recipe is super easy to make in one bowl and can be made gluten-free too! Serve with homemade caramel sauce, you’ll have the perfect dessert!
Vegan Chocolate Zucchini Bread
If you’re not a fan of zucchini yet, this recipe will change your mind! I mean, look at how chocolatey, moist and rich this loaf looks but it tastes even better than that! I assure you, it is so incredibly delicious, no one will ever notice that it contains shredded zucchini.
Actually, the real secret behind the perfect texture of this super tasty chocolate zucchini bread is the hidden vegetables inside. Seriously veggies and fruits, such as pumpkin purée, mashed banana, apple sauce or zucchini add so much softness and moisture in any vegan bread or cake. If you’ve tried my moist carrot cake or best chocolate banana bread yet, you know what I am talking about.
Anyway, this is not only a really great way to get your greens but also to use up extra zucchini. The only thing you need to know before starting this recipe is if you double the recipe to make more than just one loaf. You should definitely keep in mind that this bread will be gone quicker than you can make the vegan caramel sauce for the topping!
How to make Vegan Chocolate Zucchini Bread
As mentioned before this recipe is very easy to make! And you know, what that means?! The easier and quicker the recipe, the more we love it, right? So let’s start making it!
All you need to make this veggie-loaded chocolate cake loaf are just a few simple basic ingredients, plus chocolate and zucchini, of course! You don’t need a food processor, mixer, blender or any special kitchen utensils, just a box grater. Actually, the batter comes together in less than 5 minutes! Just shred the zucchini, mix the ingredients, bake and enjoy!
Tips for perfect Chocolate Zucchini Bread
Sift the dry ingredients
I highly recommend sifting the dry ingredients because sifting prevents lumps of flour, cocoa powder, and baking powder. Actually, when you have lumps in the batter you’ll need to mix more as needed until the ingredients are combined. So you’ll tend to overmix which makes the cake tough. If you don’t have a sifter, simply place a regular fine sieve over a mixing bowl. Then add the dry ingredients into the sieve and sift the mixture into the bowl. Finally, give it a good whisk making sure that all of the ingredients are well combined.
Melt the chocolate or just add chocolate chips
To make the zucchini bread more fudgy like brownies you can melt the chocolate over a water bath before adding it into the batter. But if you love melty pockets of chocolate in fluffy cake slices, I recommend to just fold in chopped chocolate. That is totally up to you! Anyway, if this triple chocolate thing is too much goodness for you, you can easily omit the chocolate chips on top.
Prepare your baking pan for easy removal!
Please make sure to prepare the baking pan properly to prevent the cake from sticking to the pan. First, lightly grease your loaf pan with vegan butter. Secondly, line it with additional parchment paper, leaving some paper overhanging. The overhanging paper is super helpful when you want to remove the cake after baking. Simply grab it and lift out the entire cake easily!
How to get the ultimate chocolate flavor
For the ultimate double chocolate flavor, I recommend using both natural unsweetened cocoa powder and vegan chocolate inside the batter. Please make sure to use NO dutch cocoa for the best results. And oh, if you want a triple chocolate zucchini cake loaf, do not forget the vegan chocolate chips on top, haha! Also, I recommend adding a bit of instant coffee or espresso powder.
Why coffee in chocolate cake?
Adding a bit of espresso or coffee powder is actually the key to the perfect chocolate cake because it makes the chocolate flavor more intense. However, this addition is just optional but I definitely recommend that since you won’t taste the coffee in the chocolate zucchini cake. Rather, the espresso or coffee powder just brings the chocolate flavor to the next level!
This vegan chocolate zucchini bread is
- Vegan (Egg-free & Dairy-free)
- Soft, Moist
- Loaded with veggies
- Rich in chocolate flavor
- Easy & quick to make
- Requires just a few ingredients
- Tastes like healthier chocolate cake
- So delicious!
- The perfect breakfast, dessert or snack
Want to make a sheet cake, muffins or cupcakes?
Since this chocolate zucchini bread recipe is super versatile you can easily make it into a sheet cake or muffins and cupcakes. The baking time may vary, depending on the baking pan you use but you can find any information in my recipe notes. Anyway, I highly recommend doing a cake test – always! – no matter what cake you bake because all ovens often vary in power and temperature.
How to serve chocolate zucchini bread
I kept my chocolate zucchini cake loaf simple and just topped it with vegan chocolate chips. That way, I find it’s easier to store and take away to work, school, university or to wherever you want to go! Also, I love when I can serve it with different toppings, such as vegan caramel sauce or melted peanut butter and banana or vegan ice cream. Anyway, if you want to make a smooth, and creamy chocolate frosting or just a simple chocolate ganache instead, feel free to do that!

Ingredients
Chocolate Zucchini Bread
- 1 1/3 cups all-purpose flour 160, or sub gluten-free flour*
- 1 tbsp cornstarch
- 1/2 cup cocoa powder 50g
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/4 cup non-dairy milk 60ml
- 1/3 cup + 1 tbsp neutral oil 100ml, such as grapeseed or canola, or sub melted coconut oil or vegan butter*
- 3/4 cup organic cane sugar* 150g, or to taste
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 tsp apple cider vinegar
- 1/2 tsp instant coffee powder or 1/4 tsp espresso powder*, optional
- 1 ripe mashed banana or sub 1/2 cup apple sauce or 2 flax-eggs *see recipe notes
- 8,8 oz shredded zucchini makes about 1 heaped cup after squeezing
- 1 cup vegan chocolate chips 150g, or chopped chocolate
Topping (optional)
- more vegan chocolate chips
Instructions
- *Note: I highly recommend watching the recipe video to see how easy it is!
- Preheat the oven to 350˚F (175˚C). Grease and line a loaf pan with parchment paper so that there is an overhang on both sides (*as shown in the pics above).
- Sift the flour, cornstarch, cocoa, baking powder, baking soda, and salt into a mixing bowl and whisk together.
- To a measuring jar add the non-dairy milk, oil, sugar, vanilla extract, apple cider vinegar, coffee powder and mashed banana (or another egg substitute *see recipe notes). Mix to combine.
- Pour this mixture into the flour mixture and stir until just combined. Then fold in shredded zucchini (make sure it is slightly squeezed) and chocolate chips (or chopped chocolate or melted chocolate *see text above). The batter should be thick but still pourable as shown in the step-by-step pics. If it’s too thick add a tiny bit more non-dairy milk.
- Fill the batter into your prepared pan. Optionally, top with more chocolate chips. Bake for about 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out mostly clean with some melted chocolate chips attached.
- Let cool in the pan completely. Then using the parchment paper to lift out the loaf carefully.
- Slice and enjoy with caramel sauce if you like!
Notes
- Instead of banana, you can sub 1/2 cup apple sauce or 2 flax-eggs. To make the flax-eggs, mix 2 tbsp ground flaxseeds + 6 tbsp warm water in a small bowl and set aside for 5 minutes to thicken. (If you’re not vegan, you can sub 2 regular eggs).
- I recommend using all-purpose flour or a blend of whole wheat and all-purpose flour. To make this chocolate zucchini bread gluten-free, use a gluten-free flour blend 1:1. (If using another flour, such as oat flour or whole grain flour, keep in mind that your chocolate zucchini bread won’t get as soft as when using a lighter flour. Also, please make sure to adjust the liquid by adding more non-dairy milk, if needed, because different flours absorb different amounts of liquid).
- You can use any sweeteners you like, such as maple syrup, agave syrup, coconut sugar or other.
- You can’t taste the coffee but it makes the chocolate flavor more intense.
- The bread freezes well for up to 3 months. Just make sure to wrap it tightly in plastic wrap and place in a freezer bag to avoid freezer burn. Thaw overnight in the refrigerator and allow to come to room temperature before serving.
- You can turn this recipe into muffins and bake for about 25-30 minutes or cupcakes and bake for about 20 minutes. If you want to make a sheet cake in a brownie pan the baking time will be about 35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out mostly clean with some melted chocolate attached.
- Please make sure to do a cake test since all ovens vary in power and temperature.

This is such an easy and delicious Recipe! I’ve made it was our non vegan friends and it was a big hit! Making it again very soon 😋
Perfect, I’m happy to hear that you all liked it. <3
You suggest watching the recipe video, but I can’t find it on this page. I’m sure it’s there and I’m scrolling past it, but I’ve scrolled top to bottom 4 times now, so I give up.
I just grated my zucchini to get started, but I’m a very inexperienced baker so I really need that video to get started.
PS: It would be excellent it the text advising people to watch the video was hyperlinked to the video.
Hi Carlee,
when I open up the blog post, the video pops up at the very top of the website. There is a little advertisement spot shown first but then my video starts. If you can’t see any video box, it’s probably due to your browser settings.
Oh. My. Goodness. I was apprehensive about this but 3 slices later and bordering on a carb coma I can 100% say this recipe is awesome. I forgot to add the chocolate chips in so threw a few on top. Utterly delicious. Thank you.
Thank you, Kayleigh! I’m glad you survived the carb coma. 😀
Very moist, fluffy, and flavorful! This recipe was perfect for my recent chocolate cravings. We had no need for the sauce topping, but fresh fruit would be perfect if I did want something. My husbands review was, “how do you make something from zucchini and not even notice there is zucchini in it?” Haha..
Tip: We did not wait long enough for cooling process before cutting and it turned into a cake like mess. Still super yummy so who cares 🙂
So cool, that you and your husband liked this zucchini bread. ❤️ Thank you so much for your sweet feedback. 🙂
This recipe worked perfectly. A beautiful rich chocolate flavour. You can’t taste the zucchini or the coffee it’s just a delicious chocolate bread. It was also super easy make! Thank you Bianca for sharing your recipes xx
Super cool that you enjoyed this bread. Thanks for your feedback, Mags! 😍
Delicious!!! Thank you Bianca for sharing these great recipes with us!
Thank you, Andrea! 🙂
Hi! Instead of using espresso powder would it be possible to use coffee made with a moka? If so how many grams of liquid coffee? 🙂
Hi Denise. 🙂
You can exchange the plant milk with coffee when not having any espresso powder.
I found Bianca’s chocolate zucchini bread on a google search. It was highly rated so I decided to give it a try. I am 100% happy with the way it turned out. I had a lot of zucchini so I made a double batch to fill two loaf pans. Everyone that I shared the bread with loved it too. This recipe is a keeper.
Thank you so much, Jolene! <3
This looks amazing! Is there anything you can replace the oil w? I’m on a strict no oil diet. I also can’t use any applesauce because it always has ascorbic acid in it which I’m allergic to.
You could try mashed banana, mashed avocado, or yogurt (plant-based of course if you’re vegan.)
Hi Jamee!
You could try to exchange the oil with soy joghurt. I’ve never tried this but I know that it’s a common option to replace oil in other recipes. Hope this will work for you!
OMG it was soooooo good Bianca!!! Best chocolate loaf I’ve ever tasted!!!! Incredibly moist and chocolatey. My non-vegan friends were back for seconds and even third slices! I used a yellow squash because I didn’t have zucchini and it worked out perfect. My loaf was perfectly done after 35-40 minutes at 350F in the oven. THANK YOU for this brilliant recipe!
Hi Rasika, so glad you love it! 😍 Thank you so much for your great feedback! ♥️ Sending much love to you!
Hello Bianca,
Thank you so much for this wonderful recipe!
I made this bread twice now and both times turned out so moist and delicious. Not too sweet too – just perfect 😊
That’s awesome! So glad you love this recipe! ❤
Many thanks! 🙂
Such a great recipe, I’ve only made it once but will be making again! A super moist, rich chocolate cake, full of hidden veggies!! A really fantastic vegan cake recipe. A hit with the whole family.
Hi Anne,
Thanks for your great feedback! 🙂
So glad your family loved it too!
Enjoy your evening! ♡
Der beste und saftigste Schokoladenkuchen, den ich seit langem gebacken habe. Er hat der ganzen Familie supergut geschmeckt. Danke für das großartige Rezept, den wird es öfter geben.
So lieb von dir! 🙂
Freut mich, dass er dir geschmeckt hat!
Danke! ♥️
Just tried this recipe and I must say it is phenomenal!!! So soft amd moist!!! Tastes heavenly!!! I love it!!! Thank you very much!!!
I’m very happy that you loved this recipe! 🙂
Thanks for your amazing feedback!
Greetings,
Bianca ♡
The best ever cake! Easy moist and soooo delicious!
I am glad you loved this recipe! ♡
Many thanks, Bianca!
Makes a perfectly moist fluffy muffin/cupcake. I put the chocolate chips on top only. These were soo good.
The second time I tried the recipe, I tripled it, because I had so many zucchinis to use. The muffins turned out terribly. The were super dense and took like 50 mins to get somewhat baked inside, so they were also dry.
3rd time, I stuck with a single batch with excellent results like the first time. These are so tasty, I am totally ok making them 1 batch at a time.
And they freeze and reheat so well.
Thank you for a great recipe!
That’s awesome! I am glad you loved this recipe! ♡
Thanks for sharing your feedback! 🙂
i’ve made the recipe a few times and each time it came out wonderfully, i love it with a few walnuts alongside the chopped chocolate! today i’d like to do it first time in muffins forms – do you think it’d be possible to add some apple pieces, banana slices or raspberries for a fruity note, while maybe reducing the amount of courgette a little?
I am so happy about that! 🙂
Thanks for your great feedback! ♡
Of course, you can add some fruits! 🙂
Such a great easy recipe Bianca!! We loved this Chocolate Zucchini bread – quick to mix through it’s made in no time… yummy!! 😋 we love your recipes Bianca
I am so glad you love this recipe! 🙂
Thanks for your great feedback!
xoxo, Bianca ❤
Loved it! Amazing recepie, easy and super Fluffy, moist and tasty. I only used a little more than half of the amount of sugar indicarles but it was enough. Thanks a lot for sharing!
Yay, that’s amazing! I am so glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for the great feedback! 🙂
The batter was very dry so I added more liquid as suggested. It took about 65 minutes to cook (with a clean toothpick) and the middle was still very raw looking over I sliced it. It was also quite crumbly. I couldn’t hold together into a slice. Not sure what I did, but I don’t think I’ll be making this again.
Adding more liquid means only one or two tablespoons. If you add more, your cake will stay wet inside while getting crumbly outside.
This recipe turned out so delicious! I’ll definitely be saving it to make again. 😋
I am so happy that you loved this recipe!
Thanks for your great feedback! 🙂
Much love, Bianca <3
Just wondering – do you use German (single acting) baking powder in this recipe, or a double acting baking powder?
I use German baking powder! 😀
Made it yesterday and added a vegan caramel glaze! So good!
Sounds great! So glad you enjoyed this recipe! Thank you! 🙂
Delicious! Made it yesterday and added a vegan caramel glaze!
Sounds great! Thanks for your feedback! 🙂
This chocolate zucchini bread recipe is really an amazing recipe. Thanks for sharing this recipe with all of us.
So glad you love it! Thank you so much! 🙂
I LOVED THIS!! i added some chocolate protein powder and a little extra soy milk and it turned out great! thank you so much for the recipe (:
So glad you loved this! Thanks for your feedback! 🙂
Best zucchinibread I’ve ever made 🤩
Soooooo rich in flavor and chocolaty
Also very moist and just delicious
Right before u eat it put it in the fridge!
Tastes even better!!!!!!!!
So glad you loved it! Thanks for the feedback! 🙂
This is my second time making this delectable bread. I didn’t have a loaf pan handy so I used an 8×8 glass pan instead. We couldn’t eat it fast enough! Definitely more delicious in the first day or two. It does dry out a bit. No one else is gluten free in my family and they couldn’t even tell. I topped this one with walnut pieces because I ran out of more chocolate chips. We didn’t even let it cool the first time!
Hint: Use good quality gluten-free blend flour. I make my own mix, but Bob’s Red Mill and Cup For Cup are excellent.
So glad you you love this chocolate zucchini bread in the gluten-free version!
Thank you for your amazing feedback! 🙂
LOVED This recipe. I used Flax egg instead of Banana. Do you have a Non-Chocolate version of this?
So glad you loved this recipe!
For a non-chocolate version, you can try my banana bread recipe. Simply subsitute half amount of bananas with shredded zucchini! 🙂
Super easy and the texture is really nice and moist.
Goes well with some berry jam 👌🏻👌🏻
So glad you enjoyed it! 🙂
I went for the Chocolate chips option and it was soooo good! I made it for a friend and she wasn’t too keen on the sound of courgettes in a cake but she loved it and finished two slices off nicely in one go! It was fudgey and moist and just perfect! I didn’t use the coffee but it still tasted great 😋 thank you so much for the recipe 😊 will definitely be making it again x
So glad your bread turned out amazing with chocolate chips! These are my favorites, too!
Thank you for your wonderful feedback! <3
This zucchini bread was so moist and delicious. I followed recipe exactly and used applesauce. My family loved how it was cake-like and so yummy. I just went out to purchase more zucchini so that we can make it again 🙂
So glad your whole family enjoyed it! Thank you! <3
This Chocolate Zucchini Bread is AH-MAZING! I subbed Potato Starch for the Corn Starch and it came out JUST as great. This recipe is super fluffy, moist and SO chocolate-y! My husband and children had no idea there was an entire zucchini in the recipe… it was that good! I have now made 2 loaves as gifts, and we devoured the first loaf in a day. Thank you for this recipe! I will never have spare zucchini floating around my kitchen again! 🙂
So glad your whole family loves this bread! 🙂 Thank you for your amazing feedback! <3
DE-LI-CIOUS!!! Stop looking for other recipes, THIS is the one!
I made 3 in a week and a half haha!😂 It’s THAT good!!!
So glad you LOVE this recipe so much! 😀
Thank you for your amazing feedback! 🙂
I have never left a comment on a recipe blog before but I have to rave about this recipe!! I made a double batch and shared it with my neighbors as well. Everyone LOVED it. My neighbor asked for a link to the recipe and really wants to make it again as well. It was rich, chocolaty, and so delicious. We didn’t have cornstarch but a simple google search and I was able to substitute with tapioca flour and I think it didn’t make a big difference. So incredible delicious. I want to try more of Bianca’s recipes now! Glad I found her on Instagram. I’m waiting to get more bananas so I can make it again, another double batch!
Hi Rebecca,
So glad you love this chocolate zucchini bread and I really appreciate it that you left a comment here! 🙂
Thank you so much for your wonderful feedback! <3
I hope you'll try my chocolate banana bread, too!
Would love to hear your feedback which one you like more! 😀
Loved this recipe! Followed your directions to make into muffins and they turned out perfectly! So chocolatey and delicious with the added bonus of the zucchini. Can’t wait to try more of your recipes!
So glad you made muffins with this recipe! Thank you so much for your great feedback! 🙂
Absolutely delicious and it was still fresh the next day. A great recipe. Hope you enjoyed making it as well as I did.
So glad you love it! Thank you so much for your great feedback! 🙂
Rich, moist and very chocolatey! I made it with gluten-free flour, coconut oil, coconut sugar, apple sauce and almond/coconut milk. Everyone loved it!
So glad everyone loved it! Thank you so much for your great feedback! 🙂
So ein super leckerer Kuchen auch wenn ich erst skeptisch war. Denn was hat Zucchini im Kuchen zu suchen 😂
Aber er ist jetzt schon zum zweiten Mal im Ofen. Soooooo lecker!!!
Freut mich, dass du so begeistert bist! 😃
Dankeschön! ❤️
This zucchini bread was amazing!!! My previous vegan baking creations never came out right but this one has all the right ingredients and measurements and nice simple steps. Seriously recommend for some gooey chocolatey goodness!
Thank you so much for your amazing feedback! So glad you enjoyed this cake! 😊
Hi Bianca, I baked this cake for my birthday, it turned out to be the best cakes I’ve ever baked. I’d like to thank you so much for such an easy and tasty recipe. All the ingredients are so readily available, its amazing.
Its my moms birthday tomorrow and she is gluten intolerant, so I also don’t have gluten free flour, could i use oat flour or coconut flour?
So glad you love this recipe! Thank you so much! ❤️ You can use a gluten-free all purpose flour 1:1
When I saw this recipe, honestly, I was skeptical. Though I solely based that on an avocado chocolate mousse I tried years ago and hated it. Haha
Anyway, I decided to take the jump and try this recipe and wow am I glad I did! It was easy to make, very easy! I did add a tiny splash of milk more, because the batter was a little dry, but it turned out beautiful. The cake is super moist, soft and fluffy. It’s almost a pillow for your mouth 🤣
Can wait to have it for dessert again! Oh and a tip: eat it with a little Skyr or Greek Yoghurt in top with raspberries 👌🏽
So glad you tried this recipe and love it so much! 😊
Thank you for your amazing feedback! ❤️
Hi Bianca,
Can I check on the size of the loaf tin, is it a 2lb tin I need?
Thanks
Tony
Hi tony,
my pan measures 25cmx11cm = 9.8“x4.3“.
Best,
Bianca
Perfect zucchini bread, thx! <3 🙂
Thank you! 😊
Amazing recipe! Easy and tasty!! Highly recommended:)
can i sub almond milk for water ?
Love love love this recipe
Yes, sure! 🙂
So glad you love this recipe so much! Thank you! 🙂
Baked it today and it’s delicious!😋 super easy to make. This bread has a very rich chocolate flavour but is very light and moist🍫 loved it!⭐️
So glad you love this chocolate zucchini bread! Thank you 🙂
I looove this recipe so much, I made it with my mom because we had some zucchinis in the fridge and we were thinking what can we prepare with them and appear in my Instagram your post! Magick!
THANK YOU VERY MUCH
Thank you so much for your amazing feedback and for tagging me on Instagram! Lots of love to you!🙂
Loved this recipe – as did my family and they are not a fan of my vegan recipes! I loved all the options you provided. I used the flax eggs and maple syrup (but only 1/2 cup). I also cut down on the chocolate chips and it was still sweet enough. I did have to add a bit more almond milk at the end like you suggested. It was so moist and full of chocolate flavour. I will definitely make this again. Thank you.
So nice to read from you! Thank you for your amazing feedback! 😊
My kids loved this recipe. It was very easy to make and is light, fluffy and delicious. Thank you for sharing I am going to try making your chocolate pumpkin marble bread next
Thank you so much! Hope you’ll enjoy my marble bread, too! 🙂
Wow!! Very friendly recipe and super flavorful. Amazing! You are so creative and talented. I can do so much with this recipe. Well done!
Thank you so much for your wonderful words! So glad you enjoyed this recipe! 🙂
could I use tapioca flour in this recipe if I don’t have corn starch on hand?
Yes, sure!
Suuuuuper lecker!
Für meinen Mann ist er ein bisschen zu süss, also probier ich es nächstes Mal mit ein bisschen weniger Zucker.
Werde den definitiv nochmal backen, besonders für meinen Bruder wenn ich den endlich mal wieder sehe, den der isst gar kein Gemüse, also müssen wir ein bisschen sneaky sein 🤫
10/10 would make again
Ich danke dir vielmals für das super Feedback! ❤️ Es freut mich wirklich sehr, dass alle begeistert sind! 😊
ALL TIME FAVORITE 💗
Ich liebe Schokolade und ich liebe Kuchen -dieser ist einfach der BESTE und wie ich finde ziemlich einfach und gelingt immer (ich bin definitiv keine gute Bäckerin)… sogar, wenn frau nicht alle Zutaten im Haus hat und ein wenig experimentieren muss. Genuss ohne Reue und Tierleid.
Das freut mich wirklich sehr, liebe Susanne!
Vielen dank für dein tolles Feedback!
😊❤️
simply wonderful. i used apple sauce, cut the sugar, and used vegetable oil. no need to grease the pan if using parchment paper, as it comes out perfectly clean & non-stick.
So glad you love this recipe! ❤️
Loved this recipe.
Thank you 🙂
This recipe was so easy to make and came out perfectly. I loved that the ingredients were things I had on hand, and nothing crazy and out of the ordinary. This bread is so delicious!
Thank you so much! 🙂
I just made this and it is sooo delicious. I didn’t have cornstarch so I subbed in a half tablespoon of arrowroot. I also added an extra tablespoon of oat milk at the end to moisten the batter. Such a winner!! Perfectly sweet even with the banana option (almost did flax eggs). Highly recommend this recipe to accompany your quarantine weekends 🙂
Hi Corinne, so glad you love this banana bread! Thanks for your amazing feedback! Happy Easter! 🙂
Such an easy recipe to follow. I didn’t have zucchini so used bottle gourd instead & it still turned out so well. Thanks Bianca 🙂
So glad you love this bread! Thank you 🙂
I baked this recipe once again today as muffins and they turned out to be super soft & moist & so chocolatey. My favorite now 😍💕
Thank you so much! 🙂
Moist, rich, chocolatey goodness. It was a hit with everyone and was super easy to make. Loved it so much i’m making another one today. Will try it in muffin tins to make individual little cakes. I put two whole zucchinis and you never be able to tell 🙂
So glad you love this recipe! 🙂 Hope your muffins will turn out as delicious!
Thank you so much for your wonderful feedback! ❤️
Yum yum yum! This recipe is amazing. I’ve tried many of Bianca’s recipes and they never fail.
The loaf is moist and fudgey, we made a rich chocolate icing to go with it. We only used 1/2 cup brown sugar, and used 1/4 cup apple sauce and 1 flax egg (it’s all we had in the pantry). It was sweet enough for us, definitely be making this again. Will try little muffins next time 🙂
Ooops! I forgot to press the stars. No doubt it is 5 stars 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
Thank you so much! 🙂
So glad you love this recipe, Jodie! Thank you so much for your amazing feedback! 🙂
Hope your muffins will be as delicious! 😛
It is so delicious! My only complaint is you said 50-60 minutes, mine was ready in 25-30 minutes! I used the same type of pan you used. Otherwise, this is so delicious, we finished half a cake within 10 minutes of it coming out of the oven. My batter was drier so I added extra oatmilk to make it wetter to your consistency. I will definitely remake this.
Wow, your oven must be very powerful! 😀 But so glad you love this recipe! Thank you so much for your amazing feedback! 🙂
È stata una bella scoperta Bianca, ho testato personalmente questa ricetta, buonissima. Grazie Bianca per averla condivisa con tutti noi 🥰
Thank you! 🙂
I baked this delight yesterday and it was fantastic. Words cannot describe the taste, the texture… Just amazing, and I’m so happy I succeeded because I’m not very skilled in baking yet. I realized last moment that I ran out of zucchini so I added very ripe papaya instead. It was heavenly! Thank you Bianca for this recipe, the tips and everything. ❤️🙏
So glad you love this recipe! Thanks for your amazing feedback and for the tip using papaya instead of zucchini! I totally love that idea! Thank you! 🙂
Tried and tested… made the muffin version.. and it was one of the yummiesttttt i have ever had!!!
So glad you used this chocolate zucchini bread recipe to make muffins! Thank you! 🙂 Lots of love, Bianca <3
Would it be possible to add some espresso instead of the powder? I’m afraid it would be too liquid. The cake looks amazing and I would love to make it! Thanks
If using espresso, you can add a little less non-dairy milk! Hope you’ll like it 🙂 Thank you!
Excellent recipe! I made a few changes to some ingredients such as using arrowroot powder instead of cornstarch and erythritol instead of cane sugar, but the end result was still fantastic! Thank you for sharing your recipes!
Hi Sabrina, thank you so much for your feedback! So glad that you enjoyed this chocolate zucchini cake even in the sugar-free version! 🙂 Lots of love, Bianca <3
This cake is AMAZING! Rich and dense, easy to make, and the fact it’s cruelty free and has sneaky fresh veggies in there? Mind blown! I used sugar free dark chocolate and Queens sugar free maple syrup as sweetener to make it a little less naughty, and it was supurb. Served with some plant based ice cream, the whole cake lasted about 8 minutes in my house full of sceptical non-vegans 😂 10/10 will be making this again!
Hi Kathryn, wow only 8 minutes?! That’s a super quick time! 😀 So glad that you enjoyed this recipe! Thank you so much for your feedback! Lots of love, Bianca <3
I did your zuccini chocolate bread and it turned out amazing!!!
Thank you for sharing it 😍
So glad that you enjoyed it! Thank you! 🙂
I tried this recipe today and it turned out wonderful. I was already used to using zucchini inside my carrot cakes but never thought of adding it to a chocolate one! I am not vegan but was testing it for a vegan friend who has limited sources, so I tried to stick to the recipe but used half-skim dairy milk instead and had to add a little more to loosen the batter as mine turned a little dense but in the end after 50 minutes it turned out amazing for a recipe with no eggs in it. The inside is very much regular cake like and soft. Enjoyed it very much.
I totally love baking chocolate cake with zucchini because it makes the cake wonderfully moist! So happy to hear you enjoyed the chocolate zucchini bread too! 🙂 Thank you so much for your feedback!
So glad I found your blog! Your recipes all look amazing and your photos are stunning! Will definitely be trying out this zucchini bread!
Welcome! So happy you found my blog! Have fun trying the zucchini chocolate bread! Can’t wait to read your feedback! 🙂
This cake is the best vegan chocolate cake in the world :)! The recipe is perfect, easy to make and so delicious. Thumbs up and five stars :)!
Thank you so much! So happy about that 🙂
This is absolutely divineeee, so easy to make and so rich!
So happy that you liked it 🙂 Thank you <3
Yummo! I used chicken eggs and half the recommended sugar and it turned out great. Rich chocolately goodness. I do feel a caramel sauce or vanilla ice cream is required just to bring in some missing sweetness (that’s totally on me) 👌🏼
I totally love adding ice cream or caramel sauce or any sweet spread on top of my zucchini chocolate bread slices so I didn’t add too much sugar into the batter. So glad that you liked the recipe too 🙂 Thank you! <3
Absolutely loved the recipe. Never thought a boring veggie like zucchini can be used in this amazing dessert style bread. Easy to follow recipe and absolutely no complicated ingredients.
I totally love baking with veggies and especially zucchini adds so much moisture, plus it’s healthy, haha! So glad that you liked the zucchini loaf too 🙂 Thank you!
It’s a lovely combination. Now healthy don’t have to take cakes out of the picture. This is so yum! 👌♥️♥️
Thank you so much 😀
