INGREDIENTS:

1 1/4 cup whole wheat flour

1/4 cup cacao powder

1 tsp baking soda

1 tsp baking powder

1/2 tsp salt

2 ripe bananas

1/4 cup date or maple syrup

1/4 cup apple sauce

1/4 cup water

1 tsp apple cider vinegar

1 cup shredded zucchini

1 bar Alter Eco 90% dark chocolate - chopped

INSTRUCTIONS:

Preheat your oven to 350F. Line a loaf pan with parchment paper or grease it with coconut oil. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cacao powder, salt, baking soda, baking powder, and set aside. In another bowl, mash up your bananas, and add in the apple sauce, syrup, water, and apple cider vinegar. Add the wet ingredients to the drip, folding in your chopped chocolate and zucchini. Pour your batter into your loaf pan, and top with extra chocolate if you like - you can also add some sliced banana on top. Bake your bread for 40-45 minutes, until your toothpick comes out clean. Allow your bread to cool before slicing.
