Chocolate Chip Zucchini Bread is a great fall treat that everyone will adore!

Chocolate Chip Zucchini Bread

It’s less than a month until Christmas, you guys. LESS THAN A MONTH. Do you even know how many presents I have left to buy?

All of them.

For like 20 people.

Hold me.

As much as I love shopping and buying gifts for people, by the end of the shopping season I’m all bought out. That’s why I love putting the credit cards away once in a while and taking out my mixing bowls and making something awesome for people. Doing is sometimes so much better than buying – you know? This week, I’m having a bake-a-thon at my place and I’m making a bunch of desserts for my church’s Christmas party. For 150. This chocolate chip zucchini bread is definitely making it onto the dessert table.

This bread is super easy to make. It’s full of spices, zucchini, and pecans, and with a glaze or icing, this bread could easily be a dessert. I love dual purpose baked goods. Is it breakfast? A snack? Or a dessert? ALL OF THEM. That’s what.

Know what else I’m making this week? I have an entire baking schedule up on my fridge so I make sure to get it all done. When I’m busy – I’m really busy!
