Zucchini Brownies

These brownies have been featured in one of our cooking demos. Melt extra chocolate chips to spread on top for extra decadent brownies.

Ingredients

• 1 3/4 cup whole wheat pastry flour
• 1/3 cup cocoa
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 egg
• 1 1/2 cups coconut palm sugar (Sweet Tree brand)–available at the co-op or whole foods
• 1/2 cup yogurt (we like Strauss)
• 1/2 cup melted butter
• 2 teaspoons vanilla
• 2 cups zucchini, shredded fine
• 1/2 cup chocolate chips

Directions

Mix first 4 ingredients. Separately mix wet ingredients. Combine the two and add the zucchini and chocolate chips. Mix well. Pour into a well-greased 9×13 inch pan. Bake at 350 for 25 minutes. It is ready when a toothpick comes out clean.
