How to Store Zucchini Bread
Store the zucchini bread in the fridge so that it’ll last longer.
Can zucchini bread be frozen?

If you’re wondering how to keep the chocolate chips from sinking to the bottom of this bread, I learned a trick after I shared this recipe. Simply toss the chips with a little flour before adding them to the batter and they won’t sink.
Variations:
To save time, shred the zucchini in a food processor instead of with a box grater. Use whole wheat flour instead of white whole wheat, or use all white whole wheat and no all-purpose for an extra whole-grain boost. If you don’t have unsweetened applesauce, you can use bananas, but it will change the flavor. Add a little nutmeg, cinnamon, or cardamom. Swap the chocolate chips for pecans, walnuts, or blueberries, or skip them altogether. Make chocolate chip zucchini muffins – start checking them around 25 minutes and bake until a toothpick comes out clean.
