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.
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.
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.
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.
To store this low-carb bread, wrap in a paper towel, seal in a plastic bag, and refrigerate for up to 1 week.
My family absolutely loves this Low-Carb Paleo Chocolate Zucchini Bread! If you’re following a low-carb, high-fat (LCHF) diet, check out my Keto Diet Recipes page.

I love this recipe! So many of your recipes are a staple in our home, thank you! I like the consistency better when I divide evenly into 12 silicone muffin molds. It also freezes better. I discovered today, (unable to grate zucchini due to tennis elbow) that you can mix everything according to your directions, then carefully swap out the mixing blade for the grater attachment. I transferred to a bowl and folded the zucchini in by hand. Thanks again!
Jenny, thanks so much for letting me know you love this recipe!
This chocolate zucchini bread is super easy to make and is unbelievably delicious and moist!! It remains moist until the last bite, but it doesn’t take very long for that final bite to come around because EVERYONE, Celiac or not, just loves it.
My taste buds remember the delicious flavor so often that I end up making it…often :-) You will never regret trying this recipe! (Hint: buy a good quality cocoa/cacao powder)
BTW: As a person with multiple food allergies, Elana’s recipes are a godsend. I can eat every recipe in her Almond Flour Cookbook and non-Celiac friends enjoy them just as much. Other Celiac/GF recipes use multiple flours with multiple additives, some of which I can’t tolerate. So…..Thank You So Much, Elana!!
OOH – as someone else mentioned, I also leave out the stevia.
Elizabeth, I am so HAPPY to hear that you and yours LOVE this recipe! Also thrilled that you can eat everything In my first book. Take good care and I hope you’ll keep me posted on how you’re doing :-)
It looks so good.
I was wondering if I could substitute swerve for the honey?
Mary, feel free to experiment and LMK if it works :-)
Hi, Elana! I’ve made so many of your recipes over the years and always enjoy. Just wanted to say this is my new go-to quick bread. SO delicious. Everyone in my family really loves it. I do leave out the Stevia, because for me, the honey is plenty sweet! It really is WONDERFUL. My kids even love it, and they are big on chocolate desserts!
Finley, I’m so glad you and your family love this bread!
