Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x5 inch loaf pan.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, beat the eggs, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until creamy. Add yogurt, oil, vanilla, and zucchini, stirring until incorporated.
  4. Gently fold the dry mixture into the wet mixture, mixing until just combined.
  5. Fold in the chocolate chips, distributing them evenly throughout the batter.
  6. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top.
  7. Bake for 50-60 minutes, checking for doneness with a toothpick.
  8. Allow the bread to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
  9. Once cooled, slice the bread and serve warm or at room temperature.
