Chocolate Zucchini Bread

Ok. Its that time of year. Too many zucchinis in the garden to keep up with? Thats what we are dealing with! Here is a healthier version of the classic recipe that we all love...and why not add some chocolate? When your husband works at a chocolate factory, there is no shortage of chocolate in this house!

1 1/2 cup flour (you can use whole wheat flour)
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1 tsp ground ginger
1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1 cup sugar, or honey
1 cup shredded zucchini
1/4 cup coconut oil
1 egg
1/4 cup plain yogurt
1/4 cup chocolate chips or chocolate chunks

Preheat over to 350. Grease loaf pan. Mix dry ingredients (first 7 ingredients) in bowl. In separate bowl mix the remaining 6 ingredients. Add dry mixture in with the wet and mix until incorporated. Pour batter into pan and bake for 55-60 minutes. You can serve warm with butter and is great for breakfast!
