Preparation
Chef’s notes
Be careful not to overmix! Overmixing the batter will make the bread dense.
Bake once, eat twice. This recipe makes two loaves of quick bread. They’ll keep well in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, but they also freeze perfectly.
Try changing it up! Swap half the chocolate chips for chopped walnuts, pecans, or dried tart cherries. Or, use yellow squash in place of zucchini.
