I&#8217;ve learned to only plant a few hills of the green stuff, but <em>man<\/em>, those plants pump out the zucchini! I grate and freeze bags of it, stir fry it, make fritters, and bake with it. And yet, there was a basket full of zucchini on my counter today&#8230;just sitting there guilting me.<\/p>\n<p>When life hands you zucchini, make zucchini bread!<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m really excited about the flavor combination in this bread. Chocolate and orange makes me dream of Christmas, but I&#8217;m happy to scarf it down any time of year. Like right NOW.<\/p>\n<p>I was throwing ingredients together really fast because we were having a wild storm here and I was afraid we&#8217;d lose power before the bread had time to bake, so I totally forgot to add nuts to the batter. The bread had been in the oven for five minutes when I remembered, so I tossed some chopped pecans on the top. This was not one of my better ideas, since the weight of the nuts made the top of the bread sink a bit. It isn&#8217;t picture-perfect, but I can attest to the fact that the texture and taste is amazing.<\/p>\n<p>I know this because I tested it several times. For the blog.<\/p>\n<p>One nice thing about this recipe is that you just use one bowl and don&#8217;t even have to mess with a mixer. A wooden spoon is all you&#8217;ll need to mix up this batter. It&#8217;s a slam-dunk recipe, which is kind of nice once in a while. You&#8217;ll want to print this one out; it&#8217;s a keeper!<\/p>\n<div class=\"easyrecipe\" data-rating=\"#rating#\"> \t<link itemprop=\"image\" href=\"http:\/\/www.therowdybaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/ORANGE-CHOCOLATE-ZUCCHINI-BREAD-for-featured-image-1000x288.jpg\" \/>\n<div class=\"item ERName\">Orange Chocolate Zucchini Bread<\/div>\n<div class=\"ERClear\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"ERHead\">Author: <span class=\"author\">The Rowdy Baker<\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"ERSummary summary\">Makes 1 loaf<\/div>\n<div class=\"ERIngredients\">\n<div class=\"ERIngredientsHeader\">Ingredients<\/div>\n<ul class=\"ingredients\">\n<li class=\"ingredient\">1\/2 cup butter, softened<\/li>\n<li class=\"ingredient\">1\/2 cup brown sugar<\/li>\n<li class=\"ingredient\">1\/2 cup white sugar<\/li>\n<li class=\"ingredient\">2 eggs<\/li>\n<li class=\"ingredient\">1 teaspoon vanilla<\/li>\n<li class=\"ingredient\">Zest and juice from one large orange<\/li>\n<li class=\"ingredient\">1\/2 cup buttermilk<\/li>\n<li class=\"ingredient\">1 cup grated zucchini<\/li>\n<li class=\"ingredient\">1\/4 cup cocoa<\/li>\n<li class=\"ingredient\">1 1\/2 cups all-purpose flour<\/li>\n<li class=\"ingredient\">1 teaspoon baking powder<\/li>\n<li class=\"ingredient\">1 teaspoon baking soda<\/li>\n<li class=\"ingredient\">1\/2 teaspoon salt<\/li>\n<li class=\"ingredient\">1\/2 cup chopped pecans or walnuts (optional)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"ERInstructions\">\n<div class=\"ERInstructionsHeader\">Instructions<\/div>\n<div class=\"instructions\">\n<ol>\n<li class=\"instruction\">Heat oven to 350 F.<\/li>\n<li class=\"instruction\">Generously grease and flour a standard loaf pan<\/li>\n<li class=\"instruction\">Beat together the butter, brown sugar, white sugar, eggs, and vanilla.<\/li>\n<li class=\"instruction\">Mix in the orange zest and juice, buttermilk, and zucchini.<\/li>\n<li class=\"instruction\">Stir in the cocoa, flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and nuts just until combined.
