Preparation : 30 minutes
Serves : 15 brownies
Ingredients :
- 2 cups zucchini, finely grated
- 1 egg
- 1/2 cup coconut oil, melted
- 1/2 cup maple syrup
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup cacao or cocoa powder
- 1 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 cup wholemeal flour or spelt flour
Method :
1. Preheat oven to 190 degrees Celsius and line a brownie tin with baking paper.
2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the egg, coconut oil, maple syrup and vanilla extract. Then add in the cacao or cocoa powder, baking soda and salt, whisking until well combined.
3. Gently squeeze the grated zucchini, being careful not to squeeze out all the liquid. Add the zucchini to the mixing bowl and stir. Then add in the flour and stir gently until well combined.
4. Pour the brownie batter into the prepared baking tin and ensure its level. Bake in the oven for 25-28 minutes or until the centre is just cooked.
5. Remove from the oven and allow brownie to cool in the tin for around an hour. Transfer the brownie to a cooling rack to cool off completely. Cut into 15 squares.
