      I've always been interested in the science of baking. It has served me well in not wasting money and time and effort spent not to mention frustration and disappointment in a less than perfect outcome.

    Just made this recipe. But I put them in the large muffin tray. Baked for 45 min. Could have been good at 40 min. The kids loved them!! Didn’t even care there was zucchini in them. Great recipe!!

    Just tried the recipe. I too love how you explain things in detail. I would have passed algebra if you'd been my teacher. I used my food processor to chop the zucchini, but made sure to weigh it. Old recipes when we didn't have scales, sift flour, or cream butter can change things. I follow you, then tweak I need to. Thanks for helping me grow in baking. At 65 I'm still learning. Old recipes we were taught, a pinch, a smidge, and buttermilk. Now it's science learning new things. Thanks for teaching us so well!! Sometimes I just like to hear you in my kitchen, it's like the old days when we all cooked together. Blessings to you.

    I have always been a good cook; but not such a good baker. I actually bought a kitchen scale and have been using it for nearly a year thanks to your videos. I made this recipe today and it turned out great! I did substitute Chinese five spice for the cinnamon. Thanks for sharing such great recipes. I make your recipes at least once a week and they are always delicious.

    This. Is. The. Best. I used Ghirardelli 72% choc chips and a combo of Hershey’s cocoa and Ghirardelli dark chocolate baking cocoa. We are a dark choc fam. I weighed and sifted as instructed and was careful not to over-bake. I made a double batch and used mini loaf pans so that I could share with my grown daughters. I even got my autistic student (I teach in my home), who is afraid to try new things and thinks he hates zucchini, to try it. He loved it and took my recipe and some zucchini home to make his family a loaf. This recipe is now included in my favorite recipe file, and this is significant because I am a picky baker with a sophisticated palate. Well done, John!

    Hi John, I made your chocolate zucchini bread and it was delicious. I made a second loaf but I omitted the cocoa powder and chocolate chip. I replace the chocolate chip with chopped pecans and the cocoa powder with brown sugar. It turn out fantastic. Thank you for sharing your recipes.

    Hi John, just for reference I have been baking for over 50 years and this is the most incredible zucchini bread I have ever made. I didn't even add the espresso because I ran out, so next time it will even be better, though I can't imagine that. I will be making this bread many many more times. I've made quite a few of your recipes, and I love them all. Thanks for sharing all your yummy dishes.

      P.S. go ahead and make it and try a slice - if you do not like it, slice the remainder of the loaf into single servings, wrap and freeze them, then give them to a friend.

    I am getting tons of zucchini this year. I have been thinking about baking some bread. I hadn't thought of doing chocolate. That would go good with a strong cup of black coffee. My mom used to shred it and freeze it in 2 cup portions in freezer bags. She would add it to spaghetti sauce to get us to eat it LOL. We never knew :)
