CHOCOLATE ZUCCHINI TEFF BREAD-GLUTEN-FREE DAIRY-FREE-1

This rich chocolate zucchini bread is a delicious way to use an abundance of summer zucchini. Made with whole-grain teff flour, cacao powder, eggs, and plenty of freshly grated zucchini, it has a moist, tender texture and deep chocolate flavor while being gluten-free and dairy-free. Teff adds a pleasantly earthy flavor that pairs beautifully with chocolate, along with fiber, protein, minerals, and other nutrients. Enjoy a thick slice for breakfast or an afternoon snack, or tuck slices into lunchboxes for a nourishing homemade treat.
