Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan with a nonstick cooking spray or line with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the almond flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt until well combined and there are no lumps.
In another bowl, beat the eggs until they are light and frothy, which should take about 2-3 minutes.
Stir the unsweetened applesauce, vanilla extract, Almond milk, and your preferred sugar substitute (stevia or erythritol) into the beaten eggs until fully incorporated.
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring gently to ensure everything is combined but avoiding over-mixing.
Fold in the sugar-free dark chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 40-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Allow the bread to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
Serve the chocolate bread as a delightful breakfast treat or a satisfying dessert.
