Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375F and line an 8x8-inch baking dish with parchment paper.
- Shred the zucchini and use your hands to squeeze as much water as you can from it.
- In a large bowl, whisk the egg together with the melted coconut oil, maple syrup and vanilla extract.
- In a second bowl, combine the cocoa powder with the baking powder, flour and salt.
- Pour the wet ingredients over the dry ones and stir to combine. The batter will be thick at this stage. Stir in the shredded zucchini.
- Transfer to the prepared baking dish and bake for 22-25 minutes. The center will be a bit soft, but will fully set as it cools.
- Allow the brownie to completely cool after baking, then cut and enjoy!
Notes
- Store any leftover brownies covered or in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 1 week.
- You can freeze these too! Separate the bars with parchment or wax paper and place them in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 2 months. When you’re ready to enjoy, thaw them in the fridge and then bring them to room temp.
