Ingredients

Scale

3 eggs
1 cup vegetable oil
2 cups sugar
2 cups grated zucchini
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
3 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
3 teaspoons cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1 cup chocolate chips

Instructions

Preheat oven to 325°F (165°C). Grease two loaf pans.
In a large bowl, mix together eggs, vegetable oil, sugar, and grated zucchini until well combined. Stir in the vanilla extract.
In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and baking powder.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture until just combined.
Toss chocolate chips in a tablespoon of flour to prevent sinking and fold them gently into the batter.
Pour batter evenly into prepared loaf pans. Optionally sprinkle more chocolate chips on top.
Bake for one hour or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Let cool for at least 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
