Ingredients

2 cups of zucchini chopped (about 1 medium zucchini)
2 ripe bananas
2 eggs
¼ cup maple syrup
2 teaspoon vanilla extract
2.5 cups oats rolled oats work best
1.5 teaspoon cinnamon
1.5 teaspoon baking soda
¼ teaspoon salt
1 cup chocolate chips or chunks

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350 F and grease a 8-½ x 4-½ x 2-½ inch pan.
In a high powered blender combine zucchini, bananas, eggs, maple syrup, vanilla extract, oats, cinnamon, baking soda and salt. Blend until smooth.*DO NOT OVERBLEND- the more you blend the more dense the loaf will get! You may need to use a spoon or spatula to gently stir periodically to ensure everything gets blended.
Once smooth- pour batter into the loaf pan and top with chocolate chips. Bake for about 40-50 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the loaf comes out clean. Allow to cool before slicing.

Notes

Oats can be replaced with 2 cups of pre-blended oat flour.

If you wish to shred the zucchini first you can (just don't ring out the excess water)!

You can also pour the batter into a bowl and mix in chocolate chips if you prefer to have chocolate chips throughout the bread rather than just on top
