Fudgy Zucchini Chocolate Brownies

I love chocolate, so there’s no doubt that chocolate brownies are one of the foods I enjoy very much. I also like to have fun in creating different versions of chocolate brownies.

I’ve tried quite a few chocolate brownie recipes with different ingredients, like the ones using sweet potatoes, avocadoes, and dates. And this time, we’re going to use zucchini, aka courgette.

The idea of using zucchini is inspired by the internet. I mean, I just browsed around and found that many people using zucchini in chocolate brownies. That’s a sign that it will 99% work, at least that’s what I think.

作法

  • Line the loaf pan with parchment paper. Preheat the oven at 175°C.
  • Roughly chop the zucchini. Then add them to a food processor to blitz until all are shredded.
  • Add all the remaining ingredients into the food processor. Continue to process until all combine. Stop and scrape down the sides as needed.
  • Pour the mixture into the pan. It should be runny and easy to pour.

  • Remove the brownies from the baking pan by pulling the baking paper. Sprinkle cacao powder and they are ready to be devoured.
