CHEWY VEGAN ZUCCHINI BROWNIES



Chewy Vegan Zucchini Brownies image

Just like the real thing!

Provided by Justin Moldenhauer

Categories     Fruits and Vegetables     Vegetables     Squash

Time 1h55m

Yield 24

Number Of Ingredients 12

cooking spray
1 ½ cups granulated coconut sugar
1 ¼ cups gluten-free oat flour
½ cup Dutch-process cocoa
½ cup cacao powder
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 ½ (10 ounce) bags vegan dark chocolate chips
3 small organic zucchini, diced
¾ cup grapeseed oil
⅓ cup ground flaxseed meal
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
½ teaspoon pink Himalayan salt

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Liberally spray the bottom and sides of a 10x15-inch oven-proof glass dish or two 9x5-inch loaf pans with cooking spray.
  • Combine coconut sugar, oat flour, cocoa, cacao powder, and baking powder in a large bowl. Mix well until no lumps remain, using a sifter if necessary. Set aside.
  • Place chocolate chips in the top of a double boiler over simmering water. Stir frequently, scraping down the sides with a rubber spatula to avoid scorching, until chocolate is melted, about 5 minutes.
  • Combine zucchini, grapeseed oil, flaxseed, and vanilla extract in a blender; blend on high until completely smooth and slightly warm, 1 to 1 1/2 minutes. Pour zucchini mixture into the melted chocolate; continue heating and stirring with a rubber spatula, scraping down the sides, until mixture is well combined. Remove top bowl from the heat.
  • Fold the coconut sugar mixture into the zucchini-chocolate mixture, until mixture is combined but still slightly lumpy; do not overmix. Batter will be very thick with a smooth texture. Let sit for 5 minutes, then gently stir. Pour batter into the prepared pan, spreading so it is as flat and even as possible.
  • Place brownies in the preheated oven until they look dry and shiny on top and start to pull away from the edges of the pan, and until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 25 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool in the pan for at least 1 hour.

HEALTHIER ZUCCHINI BROWNIES



Healthier Zucchini Brownies image

A great way to get more veggies into my little boy - and a tasty (nearly guilt-free) treat for me! This is a combination of other brownie recipes I've read, with an eye to make it healthier: less oil and refined sugars, plus whole wheat flour! By pureeing the zucchini and using prunes to get a dark, rich color, no one will ever know there's veggies in the brownies! Who knew that gigantic zucchini would turn into dessert?

Provided by GrrlFriday

Categories     Fruits and Vegetables     Vegetables     Squash

Time 50m

Yield 16

Number Of Ingredients 14

cooking spray
2 medium zucchini, chopped
1 cup prunes
1 cup brown sugar
½ cup natural cocoa
¼ cup vegetable oil, scant
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 ½ cups whole wheat flour
½ cup all-purpose flour
1 ½ teaspoons baking soda
½ cup chopped walnuts
1 tablespoon Demerara sugar
½ cup white chocolate chips

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Coat a 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
  • Puree zucchini in a high-powered blender or food processor. Measure out 2 cups of zucchini puree, then add prunes until level hits 3 cups. Return to the blender and process. Add brown sugar, cocoa, oil, salt, and vanilla extract; blend until totally smooth.
  • Whisk whole wheat flour, all-purpose flour, and baking soda together in a bowl. Stir in nuts. Pour chocolate mixture into flour mixture and stir together as gently as possible; batter will be very thick.
  • Spread batter into the prepared baking pan and smooth as much as you'd like; this batter will not smooth out much as it bakes. Sprinkle Demerara sugar and chocolate chips on top.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until brownies just spring back when touched in the middle or a toothpick comes out clean, about 30 minutes. Allow to cool before devouring.

DOUBLE CHOCOLATE ZUCCHINI BROWNIES



Double Chocolate Zucchini Brownies image

I found a recipe for zucchini brownies that claimed to be healthy, but it had 1/2 c. oil in it. I thought that was a bit too much, so I made up my own version--still rich, moist, and very chocolatey, but not so high in fat! I like to use whole wheat flour in cookies and brownies because I think it makes them moister, but if you prefer, you can substitute all or partly white flour. You can add nuts to this as well, if you like. A sprinkling of powdered sugar on top is a pretty finish. This is a great way to use up some of that abundance of zucchini--and to get your kids to eat some vegies! :)

Categories     Bar Cookie

Time 45m

Yield 24 brownies, 24 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 cup sugar
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1/2 cup non-fat vanilla yogurt
1 egg
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 cups whole wheat flour
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
2 cups finely grated zucchini
1/2 cup chocolate chips

Steps:

  • Beat sugar, oil, yogurt, egg, and vanilla together until smooth.
  • Add flour through cinnamon and stir until a thick batter forms.
  • Fold in the zucchini and chocolate chips. As the moisture from the zucchini soaks into the batter, the batter will soften a bit.
  • Spray a 13 x 9 x 2 inch pan with cooking spray and pour the batter into the pan.
  • Bake at 350°F for 25 - 30 minutes or until a knife inserted in the center comes out mostly clean.
  • Cut into squares and enjoy!

It is easy to sneak in healthier ingredients because the chocolate covers it up! Options: use half splenda half sugar, add 1/2 c chopped nuts, use all purpose flour. After cooled, top with "Chocolate Frosting for Zucchini Brownies", also on Food.com. I personally like them fine without the frosting, but they are good with it as well.

2 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
2 cups zucchini, shredded
1/2 cup walnuts, chopped
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
6 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
1/4 cup margarine
2 cups confectioners' sugar
1/4 cup milk
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan.
  • In a large bowl, mix together the oil, sugar and 2 teaspoons vanilla until well blended. Combine the flour, 1/2 cup cocoa, baking soda and salt; stir into the sugar mixture. Fold in the zucchini and walnuts. Spread evenly into the prepared pan.
  • Bake for 25 to 30 minutes in the preheated oven, until brownies spring back when gently touched.
  • To make frosting, melt together the 6 tablespoons of cocoa and margarine; set aside to cool. In a medium bowl, blend together the confectioners' sugar, milk and 1/2 teaspoon vanilla. Stir in the cocoa mixture.
  • Spread frosting over cooled brownies before cutting into squares.

Tips:

  • Use fresh zucchini: Fresh zucchini has a higher water content, which will make your brownies more moist. If you only have access to older zucchini, be sure to squeeze out any excess water before using it.
  • Grate the zucchini finely: This will help it blend into the batter more easily and evenly. You can use a box grater or a food processor fitted with a grating blade.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter can make your brownies tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the brownies until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs attached: Overbaking the brownies will make them dry and crumbly.
  • Let the brownies cool completely before cutting them: This will help them to set properly and prevent them from falling apart.

Conclusion:

Zucchini brownies are a delicious and healthy way to enjoy your favorite dessert. They are packed with nutrients and antioxidants, and they are also a good source of fiber. If you are looking for a new and exciting way to use up your zucchini, give these brownies a try. You won't be disappointed!
