    Healthy Zucchini Chocolate Brownies Recipe
    Ingredients:
    1 cup Natural Peanut Butter
    2 medium zucchini, organic, grated using small grate, squeezed dry
    1 tsp. Vanilla extract
    1 tsp. Baking soda
    ¼ cup cocoa powder, I used Guittard’s Cocoa Rouge
    1 large egg
    1 ¼ cup semi sweet chocolate chips, melted
    ½ tsp. Cinnamon
    ⅓ cup honey, raw
    1 cup heaping pecans, chopped
    Directions:
    Grate the zucchini using a fine grater and place on paper towels or a clean towel and squeeze until most of the water has been removed. Place the dry zucchini into a large bowl.
    Coat a 8 x 8 baking dish with a thin coating of olive oil. Set aside.
    In another large bowl add the egg, baking soda, cocoa powder, and the honey. As a tip, coat your ⅓ cup with a thin coating of olive oil and rub it around. Then measure out your honey and it will come out of the cup easily.
    Using a hand mixer, blend the ingredients until combined. Then add the peanut butter and the vanilla extract and mix with the mixer again. The batter will be thick.
    Melt the chocolate chips in the microwave for 20 to 30 second increments and stir each time until the chocolate is melted and smooth. Add this to the brownie mixture and blend it in with the mixer until well combined.
    Combine the brownie mixture with the zucchini and mix with the hand mixer until you can no longer see the zucchini.
    Add the chopped nuts and stir to combine. Pour the brownie mixture into the prepared baking dish spreading evenly with a spatula.
    Bake in a preheated 350 F. oven for 35 - 40 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Let the brownies cool for at least 10 minutes before cutting. These are moist, chewy and full of chocolate flavor. Don’t tell anyone there is zucchini in these and that won’t even notice.
    Thanks for watching and sharing!

    My aunt has long been a wonderful cook. Long decades ago she had a dinner guest during zucchini season. At the end of the meal, they were relaxing over chocolate cake. The guest said, "I told you I don't like zucchinis. You said you could get me to eat them, but I saw them in the meal and ate around them!"
    She replied, "You're eating them now in the chocolate cake."

      You can try Almond butter or sunflower butter. Will any of those work with your family's allergy to nuts?

    • @clicquot2271
      @clicquot2271 Місяць тому

      Besides sunflower butter, pumpkin seed butter, or soy butter (if you have no issues with soy), some people use tahini (made from ground sesame seeds) as a substitute for nut butter, or hemp heart butter. I’ve also seen watermelon seeds or flax seeds listed, but you’d have to blend them with a touch of neutral oil to make your own “butter”.

    I have been vehemently anti seed oils for years, but lately I am becoming convinced they are safe and perhaps even good for heart health. I fell under the sway of online nutrition “experts” who basically recycled each other’s bro/faux science. Now I only listen to scientists.

    • @RockinRobinCooks
      @RockinRobinCooks  2 місяці тому

      I'm curious if you know of any studies that show they are safe? I would love to see the "other side" on these oils. Thanks for the comment.

      Dr. Gil Carvalho cites many studies and links to them in the description of this video. He is an MD and has a PhD in biology. He seems objective-not religious about any one diet or eating pattern-and appears to be well-credentialed.
