Chocolate Zucchini Banana Bread | Vegan + Gluten-Free

January 15, 2023 By julia

Harvest season around here means ZUKES are flowing out of every corner.

This chocolate zucchini banana bread is THE recipe to put those zucchinis to use… Hidden veggie nutrition in a delicious chocolate loaf.

YES, PLEASE.

No eggs, no dairy, no problem.

I even added in some Love Complement whole food protein powder.

Love this stuff!

First, I’ll say: You can get enough protein on a plant based diet without protein powder! But, if you’re not eating a variety of plants, and enough calories in general, or if you’re training or growing or aging, it doesn’t hurt to add a bit of protein powder to your life.

This one is my fave because it’s 5 whole food ingredients (no isolates), no fillers, no sugars, and comes in a biodegradable bag.

Check it out here.

You can use the code ‘hookedonplants‘ for a discount (I get a slight kick back if you do so, and you also get 10% off). I love this company for the quality and effort they put into transparency! I also take their daily essentials (everyday).

You could also add some organic Stay Wyld medicinal mushroom powders to this too! I add my mushie powders to everything possible.
