Zucchini Brownies

1 cup gluten-free flour mix

1/2 tsp. xanthan gum

3/4 cup sugar

1/2 tsp. salt

3/4 tsp. baking soda

1/4 cup baking cocoa

1 large egg

1 tsp. vanilla extract

1/3 cup veg. oil

1 cup peeled/shredded zucchini

1/2 cup chocolate chips

1/4 cup chopped nuts

extra chocolate chips for sprinkling on top

In bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients. Stir in egg, vanilla and oil. Stir in zucchini (it will moisten the batter). Stir in chips and nuts. Spread batter into a sprayed 8x8" pan. Sprinkle chocolate chips on top. Bake in preheated, 350 degree, oven. Bake about 30 minutes or until toothpick comes out clean.

*zucchini will be hard to see in the brownies unless you leave on the peel.

I made some today for my dd. I also use part p.b. chips...mmm! I took them to our women's Bible study group last week and they all wanted the recipe except for one lady-she didn't like chocolate...lol! The neighbors loved them too, it's a nice way of giving zucchini away...HA HA!

These sound great. Did your gluten-free flour mix contain xanthan gum? Mine does, so I think I probably don't need the extra 1/2 tsp. Thanks for posting!

It is sorghum or rice flour with tapioca and cornstarch.

(I made another pan full this morning, then frozen the extra zucchini)

Thanks! We have a bumper crop of zucchini, so I will try making brownies this week!

Thanks for this recipe. I also have waaaaay more zucchini that we can eat or I want to freeze. However, we always love brownies. What a great way to sneak more vegies into my husband's diet. LOL
