Zucchini Brownies

Adapted from Veggie Converter

INGREDIENTS:
  • 3/4 cup agave *
  • 1/2 cup applesauce
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
  • 2 cups flour
  • 1/2 cup cocoa
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
  • 2 teaspoons cinnamon
  • 1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
  • 2 cups finely shredded zucchini
METHOD:
  • Blend agave, applesauce and vanilla
  • Combine flour with other dry ingredients
  • Stir wet ingredients into dry ingredients - will be very dry
  • Stir in shredded zucchini - will moisten dough
  • Spread into greased 9 x 13 baking pan
  • Bake at 350 for 35 minutes
NOTES:
I did not want the brownies to be as gooey as shown in the original recipe so I reduced the agave to 1/2 cup and added some stevia.  They brownies did not come out gooey at all rather fluffy like cake, and could be a little sweeter so I would stick with the 3/4 cup of stevia and maybe add 1/4 cup of sugar the next time.
