Chocolate Chip Zucchini Banana Bread is the most delicious way to enjoy your ripe bananas and garden fresh zucchini! Packed with fruit, veggies and luscious chocolate chips, this is one recipe you can feel good about making and sharing.

Ingredients:
1 1/2 c. all-purpose flour
1 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. baking powder
1 1/4 tsp. cream of tartar
1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 c. canola oil
2/3 c. granulated sugar
1 large egg, lightly beaten
1 c. finely grated zucchini
1 c. mashed banana
1 1/2 c. chocolate chips

Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Grease a loaf pan with nonstick cooking spray.

In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, cream of tartar and salt; set aside.

In the bowl of an electric stand mixer, beat together oil and sugar.  Add egg and continue mixing.  Add zucchini and mix on medium speed until blended.  

Starting and ending with the flour, alternate adding the flour mixture and the mashed banana, a little at a time, while the mixer runs on low.

Fold in the chocolate chips and pour batter into prepared pan.

Bake 50-55 minutes, tenting with foil for the last 15 minutes to avoid too much browning.  Allow bread to cool before slicing, serve warm with a little butter.
