Gluten-Free Zucchini Brownies
Incredibly moist, these brownies are so easy to make! All it takes is a bowl and a few ingredients to make these decadent gluten-free brownies.
Ingredients
- 2 cups zucchini grated
- 1 1/4 cups cane sugar
- 1/2 cup avocado oil
- 2 cups gluten-free all-purpose flour with xanthan gum
- 1/4 cup baking cocoa
- 2 tsp vanilla
- 1 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1 tsp sea salt
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees
- In a large mixing bowl, combine zucchini, sugar, avocado oil, and vanilla extract.
- In a medium mixing bowl, sift together the flour, cocoa, baking soda, sea salt, and cinnamon.
- Mix the dry ingredients thoroughly with the wet ingredients.
- Pour into greased baking dish.
- Bake for 300 to 35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the middle comes out clean.
- Remove from oven and completely cool.
- Frost with Dark Chocolate Frosting, if desired.
Notes
- Use High-Quality Cocoa Powder: For a richer chocolate flavor, use high-quality unsweetened cocoa powder. Dark chocolate makes these brownies even more decadent!
- Add Binder: If your gluten-free flour blend does not contain xanthan gum, sift in 1/8 teaspoon with the dry ingredients.
- Add In Extras: Feel free to add in your favorite mix-ins such as dried fruit, or different types of nuts for added texture and flavor.
- Baking Time: When baking gluten-free, recipes generally take a bit longer to bake. Always test doneness by inserting a toothpick into the batter. If it comes out clean you know it's done. If not, bake it a few minutes longer and test again.
