INGREDIENTS
  

  • 2 eggs medium
  • ½ cup sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ¼ cup olive oil
  • ½ cup kefir
  • 1 and ½ cups all purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 cup zucchini shredded but not squeezed
  • ½ cup walnuts crumbled
  • ½ cup chocolate chips
  • 2 tablespoons chocolate chips for topping

INSTRUCTIONS
 

  • Butter a 9 x 5 loaf pan and line it with parchment paper. To remove the bread easier, butter the bottom of the paper too. Set aside.
  • Preheat oven to 350F.
  • In a large bowl, mix together the eggs and sugar until creamy using an electric mixer.
  • Add in vanilla extract, olive oil and kefir. Mix well.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, salt and cinnamon. Gradually pour this into the wet mixture and whisk just until combined. Don’t overmix.
  • Squeeze the shredded zucchini with your hands and fold it in the batter along with the crumbled walnuts and chocolate chips.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 45-50 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
  • Remove from the oven and top with extra chocolate chips when it’s still hot, placing each of them one by one gently pressing them down.
  • Let it cool in the pan for about 30 minutes and then remove.
