Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare a 9×5-inch loaf pan.
Grate the zucchini and lightly squeeze out excess moisture.
Whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.
In another bowl, whisk the eggs, oil, melted butter, sugars, and vanilla.
Combine the wet and dry ingredients until just mixed.
Fold in the grated zucchini and chocolate chips.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and top with extra chocolate chips.
Bake for 50–60 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.
Cool in the pan for 10–15 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack.
Slice and serve warm or at room temperature.

Notes

Lightly squeeze the zucchini, but leave some moisture for a tender loaf.
Fold the chocolate chips in gently to keep the bread light and fluffy.
Cool completely before slicing for the best texture.
