Prep Time 5 minutes
Cook Time 15 minutes
Total Time 20 minutes
Yield 9 - 12 brownies

Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup white, oat, or spelt flour (for keto, try these Keto Brownies)
  • 1/2 cup sugar, unrefined if desired
  • 1/3 cup additional sugar OR erythritol
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 3 tbsp dutch cocoa powder
  • 1 cup finely shredded zucchini (160g) (see above for how to shred zucchini)
  • 3/4 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips, optional
  • 1/4 cup oil, or 1/3 cup softened almond butter
  • 1/4 cup water

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 F. Line an 8x8 pan with parchment, or grease well, and set aside. In a large bowl, stir dry ingredients very well, then add remaining ingredients to form a batter. Smooth into the pan. Bake on the center rack - I like to bake 15 minutes and then refrigerate overnight so they firm up while remaining fudgy. If you're in a rush, bake 20 minutes or until fully cooked. The brownies are sweeter and richer the day after they are made, IF you can wait!
