Zucchini Failure - seriously.




Why: Internet, I have a confession; I struggle with zucchini breads, especially chocolate zucchini. Baking has always been easy to me. In my mind it's just following instructions. How hard can that be? I've made some of the fanciest desserts without issue but when it comes to a gosh darn zucchini bread, I get my butt kicked most of the time. My problem is that it falls! I've done well with a regular spice zucchini but I have yet to make a successful chocolate zucchini. Wanting to give it another go - today I made both.

What: Determined not to fail this time, I made the chocolate zucchini into muffins and the regular spiced zucchini bread into a loaf. I put the loaf in the oven first and when I opened the oven to put the cupcakes in I wasn't being careful and the oven moved and my loaf sunk. BAH! My muffins turned out ok but still fell a little bit. Overall, the chocolate zucchini wasn't chocolate enough, I could definitely still taste the zucchini. Back to the drawing board for me.
