Chocolate Chip Zucchini Bars


  • Author: Shirley

Description

These Chocolate Chip Zucchini Bars are soft, moist, and loaded with melty chocolate chips in every bite. The zucchini blends seamlessly into the batter, keeping the bars tender while adding a touch of freshness. With warm cinnamon spice and a hint of sweetness, they’re the perfect balance between a snack and a dessert.


Ingredients

Scale

2 cups (248g) all-purpose flour

1½ teaspoons ground cinnamon

1 teaspoon baking powder

½ teaspoon salt

1 cup (200g) granulated sugar

¾ cup (177ml) vegetable oil

3 large eggs

1½ cups (approximately 152g) shredded zucchini (1 medium or 2 small)

1½ cups (255g) chocolate chips (mini or regular)


Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 10×15×1-inch jelly roll pan or spray with nonstick cooking spray. (For thicker bars, use a 9×13-inch pan and increase baking time.)

  2. In a small bowl, whisk together flour, cinnamon, baking powder, and salt.

  3. In a large mixing bowl, whisk sugar, vegetable oil, and eggs until smooth.

  4. Stir in the dry mixture until just combined.

  5. Fold in the zucchini, then add chocolate chips and stir until evenly distributed.

  6. Spread the batter into the prepared pan.

  7. Bake for 28–35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

  8. Cool completely before slicing into bars.
