    paleo chocolate and zucchini bread

    Whip up this easy recipe and surprise everyone!

    It had been on my mind to develop a zucchini bread to use up some of the fresh summer zucchini I’d be given. Scrolling through Luvele’s Instagram feed, which is always full of amazing and healthy recipe ideas, I fell upon ‘Comfy Belly’s’ chocolate and zucchini bread. Why develop my own when this one looks so good!

    Hiding vegetables in a chocolate cake is very clever, especially if you can’t taste it or visibly see that it’s there. Using the Vibe Blender to whip up the batter makes the zucchini completely undetectable! It’s a great way to sneak more vegetables into sweet snacks. Your family and friends will gobble it up without knowing it’s healthy.

    Chocolate and zucchini bread comes together with a few paleo pantry basics. It’s sweetened with maple syrup, so it doesn’t come out too sweet. Best of all, the zucchini makes this bread incredibly moist, soft and light. It’s delicious eaten plain or with a little butter. We enjoyed ours with homemade Nutella, which was OMG, so good!

    The original recipe calls for grated zucchini, however we just roughly chopped ours and let the blender do its thing. So easy, so quick.
