Zucchini brownies! These are delicious, healthy, and so easy and simple to make you could do it in your sleep!
In these brownies, you won’t even know the zucchini is there because you puree it down. It makes the brownies so moist and tender. It is a very thick batter until you add the zucchini. These brownies are great for travel. They don’t fall apart, and best of all they are healthy! Zucchini is loaded with many vitamins like C, A, B6, folate, and many others. It is low in saturated fat and high in anti-inflammatory properties. The whole wheat flour is high in protein and dietary fiber, and it’s more sustaining than its boring white counterpart. You can sneak zucchini into these brownies, and the enjoyer will be none the wiser.
