CHOCOLATE ZUCCHINI LOAF

Preheat oven to 350F and line a standard loaf pan with parchment paper. In a bowl mix: flour, sea salt, cacao powder, espresso powder, baking powder & baking soda. In a smaller bowl whisk: 2 eggs, pure maple syrup, and add the splash of vanilla and oil. Whisk until smooth and even. Incorporate wet ingredients into dry ingredients bowl, whisking as you go. Fold in the grated zucchini and the chocolate chips. Before adding to the batter, use a washcloth or cheesecloth to squeeze any excess water or moisture out of the zucchini. Pour batter onto the loaf pan and use a spatula to even out the surface. Tap your baking pan against a flat surface; this eliminates any large air pockets and results in a more even texture. Bake for ~50-55 mins or until a knife inserted in the middle comes out mostly clean. ENJOY!
