Ingredients
¾cupdark brown sugarpacked
½cupunsalted buttermelted
2largeeggsroom temperature
½tablespoonpure vanilla extract
1cupall-purpose flour
½cupcocoa powder
½tablespoonground cinnamon
1teaspoonbaking soda
½teaspoonsalt
1 ½cupsshredded zucchinipacked, but not drained
1cupchocolate chipsplus more for topping, if desired (I used dark, but feel free to use any flavor such as milk or semi-sweet)
Grease a 6 quart crockpot with cooking spray, then line the crockpot with a parchment paper sling (this allows you to easily lift the cooked bread out). Set aside.
Place brown sugar, melted butter, eggs, and vanilla into a large bowl and whisk until smooth.
Add in flour, cocoa powder, cinnamon, baking soda, and salt and stir until *just* combined.
Fold in zucchini and chocolate chips until *just* combined (you don’t want to over-mix as this leads to a tough bread).
Pour batter into prepared crockpot, then top with more chocolate chips, if desired.
Cover the crockpot with a thin kitchen towel (this catches any condensation that will form), then place on the lid.
Cook on LOW for 2-4 hours (I needed 2 1/2 hours) or until the bread has cooked through.
Use the parchment sling to remove the bread from the crockpot, then cool for at least 10 minutes before slicing and serving!
