Vegan Banana Zucchini Bread

2 ripe bananas, mashed

1 cup grated & squeezed zucchini - about 1 medium zucchini ( do not skip the squeezing or you'll end up with a gummy loaf)

1/4 cup vegetable oil

1/4 cup almond milk

1/2 cup brown sugar (coconut sugar would also work)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1-1/2 cups all-purpose flour

1/2 cup whole wheat flour (or more all-purpose flour)

1 teaspoon cinnamon

1/4 teaspoon nutmeg

1 teaspoon baking soda

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/2 cup chocolate chips

1.Preheat oven to 350 degrees F and line an 8" loaf pan with parchment paper.

2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together mashed banana, zucchini, oil, milk, sugar and vanilla.

3. Add the flours, spices, baking soda, and salt and use a spatula to combine. Mix in chocolate chips.

4. Bake in preheated oven for 60 minutes or until golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean or with just a few moist crumbs.

6. Cool completely before slicing for the cleanest cut.

Note: I used only all-purpose flour and whole milk and it came out great.
