Gluten Free Triple Chocolate Zucchini Bread

Adapted from The Fountain Avenue Kitchen

Whenever one of my favorite foodie friends posts a gluten free recipe, my ears perk up. Not because I am gluten free, but because I have some good friends who eat gluten free. Kelly brings me gluten free ingredients to assist in my cooking experiments. And Mitch is my techie wordpress friend helps me with my blog. So yeah, I watch out for them. And when I see a recipe that I think they will like, I am SO there … cuz, I love my GF friends and want them to eat well.

Chocolate Zucchini Bread happens to be one of my specialties (because, yes, I am a chocoholic) … and when I saw this recipe from one of my favorite foodies Ann at The Fountain Avenue Kitchen, well, I just HAD to try it. The only problem was: not enough almond flour. Yes, I could have ground up some almonds to make my own, but I had plans for my almonds too … so I decided to make a few GF flour substitutions. And of course I added chocolate. Because, well, chocolate.

This recipe turned out to be just as moist and perfectly wonderful as my Decadent Double Chocolate Zucchini Bread … that’s saying something, because that chocolate zucchini bread is one of my very all-time favorite recipes. My friend Kelly said it would be even better with raspberry sauce … okay, Kelly, I’m gonna make you some raspberry sauce to go with your chocolate (once the raspberries start producing in the fall, if I am lucky enough to get some!), but in the meantime, this gluten free chocolate zucchini bread seriously ROCKS, all on its own. Thanks Ann for the amazing recipe!
