Won't Kill the Diet Chocolate Cinnamon Zucchini Cake image

This is a revamp of an old recipe I had. I made some changes to make it a bit more diet friendly. It contains less fat and sugar then the original recipe. The best thing about it is it is loved by all including my picky eaters who do not like zucchini.

This cake was a disappointment. It was bland and flavorless.

I found this cake to be a bit dry. I think I'll add some extra oil or butter next time.

This cake is a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll reduce the amount of sugar next time.

I made this cake gluten-free by using almond flour instead of all-purpose flour. It turned out great!

I'm not a fan of cinnamon, but I still enjoyed this cake. The chocolate flavor is strong enough to balance out the cinnamon.

I was skeptical about a zucchini cake, but this one is amazing! The zucchini adds a moistness and sweetness that you wouldn't expect. I'll definitely be making this again.
