Low-Carb Paleo Chocolate Zucchini Bread is perfect for when your garden is exploding with zucchini! This easy paleo bread also keeps all of the zucchini that emerges from your CSA share under control.

Low-Carb Paleo Chocolate Zucchini Bread Recipe

The best thing about Low-Carb Paleo Chocolate Zucchini Bread is that it’s so delicious your friends will gobble it up without knowing it’s healthy! It’s also super easy to make. Lots of readers tell me that they turn this into a one-bowl recipe. They simply mix up all the ingredients in the food processor, then grate the zucchini right into the batter.

Health Benefits of Coconut Oil

One of the healthy ingredients that gives this bread a moist, rich texture is coconut oil. Studies have shown that in addition to numerous other health benefits, coconut oil can help our immune systems mount resistance to viruses.

Low-Carb Bread Recipe

Sweetened with honey and a bit of vanilla stevia, Low-Carb Paleo Chocolate Zucchini Bread makes an excellent healthy snack for kids and is equally delicious for dessert with a cup of my low-carb Iced Ginger Chai.

    Elana I have purchased multiple copies of two of your books for family members as well as myself. Your recipes are not only healthy, but delicious and easy to prepare. I also appreciate knowing the nutritional values of your recipes and I’ve written these values beside each recipe in my two books, The Gluten-free Almond Flour Cookbook and the Paleo Cooking from Elana’s Pantry.

    I have also made your chocolate zucchini bread multiple times. I now count my calories and would like to know this bread’s count. Can you tell me?
    Again, thank you for help in transforming my eating patterns.

    This was a wonderful recipe! Thanks for sharing it! I didn’t have almond flour, so I used almond meal and left out the stevia as it’s not compliant with my current diet. I used regular vanilla instead. The bread was so delicious, moist and perfectly sweet. Thank you!! My picky toddler and husband both loved it too!
