Beat cane sugar, almond milk, applesauce, coconut oil, and vanilla together in a large mixing bowl using an electric mixer.

Step 3

Whisk together flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, cinnamon, salt, and baking soda in a separate bowl. Slowly add the dry mixture to the wet ingredients, using an electric mixer, until it is all mixed well together. Stir in the zucchini and 1/4 cup chocolate chips.

Pour batter into the prepared bread pan and sprinkle the top with the remaining 1/4 cup chocolate chips.
