8*12*11

I've been munching on the 101 Cookbooks zucchini bread that I made the other day, and suddenly I started dreaming up a new variation. And then I just couldn't get it off my mind. So I gave it a shot today, and dang, they're good!


So, here it is, friends! A little bit of spice and a little bit of sweet.


Chocolate Chip Curry Zucchini Bread
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter
  • 1/2 cup natural cane sugar or brown sugar
  • 3 eggs
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 3 cups grated zucchini
  • 3 cups whole wheat pastry flour
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 1/2 tablespoon curry powder
  • zest of 1 orange
  • 2 cups chocolate chips
Preheat your oven to 350.
Line muffin cups or bread pan with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, beat the butter and sugar until it's not crumbly.
Add the eggs and vanilla and beat until just blended.
Mix in the zucchini.
In a separate bowl combine the flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, orange zest and curry powder.
In two batches, add the dry ingredients to the wet, mixing well after each addition.
Stir in the chocolate chips.
Bake muffins for 18-22 minutes, bread for about 40, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
