Grain Free Chocolate Chip Peanut Butter Zucchini Bread (2 different ways!)

Low carb grain free peanut butter zucchini bread made with simple, nutritious ingredients. There are two options to make it: with coconut flour or with protein powder! Soft, fluffy, moist and a good source of protein & fiber.

Anyway I still wanted to keep a majority of the original post in this recipe, because it’s special to me:

“As I mentioned previously, I’m taking a bit of time off this Summer from blogging. It’s not that I don’t want to because I basically have a million ideas, it’s more that I want to make sure I’m being fulfilled personally and professionally.

INGREDIENTS

• 1 medium zucchini, shredded & squeezed of excess moisture (about 1 cup shredded zucchini)
• 3/4 cup all natural creamy peanut butter*
• 1/4 cup pure maple syrup
• 2 large eggs, slightly beaten
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 2 tablespoons packed coconut flour OR 2 scoops (about 1/2 cup) of protein powder of choice*
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
• 1/2 cup dark chocolate chips, dairy free if desired

INSTRUCTIONS

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease an 8x4 inch loaf pan with nonstick cooking spray or line with parchment paper. (It's easier to get out if you use parchment paper.)
• In a large bowl, mix shredded zucchini, peanut butter, maple syrup, eggs and vanilla with whisk until well combined and creamy. Stir in coconut flour OR protein powder (but not both!), baking soda and cinnamon. You can also add in a pinch of salt if your peanut butter wasn't salted (mine was). Mix until just combined. Next, fold in chocolate chip reserving about a tablespoon for sprinkling on top.
