The first time I made these, I practically held my breath the entire time&#8230; zucchini in a brownie? I worried that I had gone too far. Putting zucchini in dessert probably means that you have reached the point of no return. But I was wrong about being worried and totally right about making my favorite multi-purpose vegetable into a dessert. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The first time I made these almond butter brownies, half of the pan was gone before they had cooled. The other half lasted a mere 2 hours. I promise you cannot taste (or see) the zucchini. They are gooey, chocolaty, and they have the prefect amount of sweet! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Ingredients:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>One large zucchini<\/li><li>1 egg<\/li><li>1 cup of cinnamon almond butter (I use <a href=\"https:\/\/www.justins.com\/products\/cinnamon-almond-butter\/\">Justin&#8217;s<\/a> and it is amazing. Regular almond butter will work, just add 2 tsp. of cinnamon)<\/li><li>1\/2 tsp. baking soda<\/li><li>1\/2 cup coconut sugar<\/li><li>3\/4 cup chocolate chips<\/li><li>1\/2 tsp. vanilla extract <\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Directions:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Peel and grate the large zucchini. <\/li><li>In a large bowl, mix the egg, almond butter, baking soda, coconut sugar, and vanilla extract until well-combined. <\/li><li>Fold in the chocolate chips and grated zucchini.<\/li><li>Line an 8&#215;8 baking dish with parchment paper. <\/li><li>Pour mixture into the baking dish.<\/li><li>Bake at 350 for 25 minutes.
