Paleo Flourless Brownies

By ROBandSEAN

The zucchini might make you a little nervous, but rest assured: these are not “treats” that taste like vegetables! The zucchini is there for the rich, soft texture: on the flavor front, these brownies are a Paleo chocoholic’s delight and the perfect grain-free treat to beat the toughest cravings around. They also don’t call for any nut flour of any kind, so they’re perfect for people who have trouble with a lot of almond-flour desserts.

Ingredients

• 2 cups shredded zucchini
• 1 cup almond butter
• 1 1/2 cup dark chocolate chips
• 1 egg;
• 1/3 cup raw honey
• 1/4 cup applesauce
• 2 tsp. vanilla extract
• 3 tbsp. cocoa powder
• 1 tsp. baking powder

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350 F.
In a food processor, combine all the ingredients and process.
