Categories     Fruits and Vegetables     Vegetables     Squash

Time 1h55m

Yield 24

Number Of Ingredients 12

cooking spray
1 ½ cups granulated coconut sugar
1 ¼ cups gluten-free oat flour
½ cup Dutch-process cocoa
½ cup cacao powder
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 ½ (10 ounce) bags vegan dark chocolate chips
3 small organic zucchini, diced
¾ cup grapeseed oil
⅓ cup ground flaxseed meal
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
½ teaspoon pink Himalayan salt

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Liberally spray the bottom and sides of a 10x15-inch oven-proof glass dish or two 9x5-inch loaf pans with cooking spray.
  • Combine coconut sugar, oat flour, cocoa, cacao powder, and baking powder in a large bowl. Mix well until no lumps remain, using a sifter if necessary. Set aside.
  • Place chocolate chips in the top of a double boiler over simmering water. Stir frequently, scraping down the sides with a rubber spatula to avoid scorching, until chocolate is melted, about 5 minutes.
  • Combine zucchini, grapeseed oil, flaxseed, and vanilla extract in a blender; blend on high until completely smooth and slightly warm, 1 to 1 1/2 minutes. Pour zucchini mixture into the melted chocolate; continue heating and stirring with a rubber spatula, scraping down the sides, until mixture is well combined. Remove top bowl from the heat.
  • Fold the coconut sugar mixture into the zucchini-chocolate mixture, until mixture is combined but still slightly lumpy; do not overmix. Batter will be very thick with a smooth texture. Let sit for 5 minutes, then gently stir. Pour batter into the prepared pan, spreading so it is as flat and even as possible.
  • Place brownies in the preheated oven until they look dry and shiny on top and start to pull away from the edges of the pan, and until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 25 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool in the pan for at least 1 hour.

Categories     Dessert

Time 40m

Yield 24 bars

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/2 cup applesauce
1 cup raw sugar
2 teaspoons maple syrup
2 teaspoons vanilla
2 cups all-purpose whole wheat flour
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
2 cups shredded zucchini
1/2 cup chopped walnuts (optional)
1/2 cup semisweet vegan chocolate chips (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 and spray a 9x13 baking pan with cooking spray.
  • In a large bowl, mix together the applesauce, sugar, syrup and vanilla.
  • Combine the flour, cocoa, baking soda, and salt - stir into wet ingredients (it will look pretty dry at this point - don't worry, it moistens up with the zucchini. However, if necessary, add a little more applesauce).
  • Stir in zucchini - if batter is still too dry, add a couple tbs of applesauce.
  • Add any optional ingredients (walnuts, chocolate chips).
  • Spread into baking pan. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes in the preheated oven, until brownies spring back when gently touched.

Tips:

  • Use ripe zucchini: This will ensure that your brownies are moist and flavorful. You can use a box grater or a food processor to shred the zucchini.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing can make the brownies tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Use a non-stick baking pan: This will help prevent the brownies from sticking to the pan.
  • Bake the brownies until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: This will ensure that the brownies are cooked through.
  • Let the brownies cool completely before frosting them: This will help prevent the frosting from melting.

Conclusion:

These vegan zucchini brownies are a delicious and healthy way to enjoy your favorite dessert. They are moist, flavorful, and packed with nutrients. These brownies are also easy to make and can be enjoyed by people of all ages. So next time you are looking for a sweet treat, give these vegan zucchini brownies a try!
