These Gluten Free Chocolate Zucchini Muffins are 100% grain free and use almond butter as the base. I love making them on the weekend and packing them in lunch boxes during the week.

GLUTEN FREE CHOCOLATE ZUCCHINI MUFFIN RECIPE
2 medium zucchini (1 cup shredded)
1 cup all natural almond butter
2 eggs
1/4 cup milk (I used unsweetened almond milk)
1 tsp. vanilla extract
1/4 cup unsweetened coca powder
1/4 cup coconut sugar
1/2 tsp. kosher salt
1/2 tsp. baking soda
2 tbsp. coconut flour
1/4 cup chocolate chips (optional)
Pre heat oven to 350 degrees F.
Grease a 12-cup muffin pan with cooking spray or coconut oil. Set aside.
Use the small holes on a box grater to shred the zucchini. Place the shredded zucchini in the center of a clean dish towel and squeeze out as such water as you can.
In a large bowl, combine the almond butter, eggs, milk ,and vanilla extract. Mix until all the et ingredients are well incorporated.
Add in the cocoa powder, coconut sugar, salt, baking soda and coconut flour. Mix again until everything is well combined. Gently stir in the shredded zucchini.
Divide the batter evenly amongst the muffin cups (each cup will be about half way full). Top each muffin with 4-5 chocolate chips.
Pop in the oven for 20 minutes or until cooked through. Cool down and enjoy!
Makes 12 muffins.

Thank you. I have allergy against not only wheat but rye, barley and oats. Research has shown that more than gluten affects immunsystem, if you have the allergy. Research did show cross reactions between grass pollen, wheat, citrus fruits and kiwi. Since wheat and the others are like grasses it stands to reason.

These are AMAZING!!!! I've made them two weeks in a row and I'm obsessed and floored that it's mostly made from Almond Butter....who would have thought. It's given me so many more ideas of ways I can replace flour with nut butters. I prefer baking egg whites and just add 2 1/4 cups of egg whites to substitute the egg requirement. I also add in few chopped walnuts (approx 1/3 cup) (pecans might be yummy too) and instead of the chocolate chips, I chop some baking chocolate (73 percent, about 1/3 cup as well) and add it in so there are chocolate patches throughout. But this is amazing overall. Thanks Dani!

100% agreed about the greater quality of pasture eggs. I'm always baking at least once a week if I can. When my family used to have chickens roaming loose in our fenced backyard and horse pasture, I'd have fun collecting the eggs from their boxes (and hunting down the rest LOL) and use *both* store bought as well as free range, just to see the difference. WOW.

These were so so delicious! I do want to point out for those of us that are on a lectin free diet, that this recipe works very well deseeding and peeling the zucchini first before shredding it. It does have much less liquid this way as well, but still needs to be squeezed out with a towel, and I added a tablespoon of Avocado oil to make up for the moisture loss. I also used Monk Fruit in place of the coconut sugar, and included chopped pecans on top with the dark chocolate nibs. Super good recipe I will make over and over for my family. Thank you Dani!

I will definitely make them again, but I will add more sweetener, probably equivalent to a cup. Thanks for the grain free recipes as I can't eat grains anymore.

I just made these and I am impressed by their texture. They rose in the oven and are spongy (not many healthy desserts feel exactly as their originals- full fat, sugary versions). They definitely need more sugar though. I added 1/4 cup of stevia on top of the 1/4 cup of the coconut sugar on the recipe, and I still think it needs an extra 1/4 cup, but the chocolate chips really help with that. Thanks for the recipe Dani!!! I will make these again.

I am going to make these one day, but just wanted to say this recipe is a perfect base for tweaking. I swapped the zucchini for bananas and added cinnamon and nutmeg instead of cocoa. Everything else was the same as this recipe. The end result were delicious, moist cupcakes! Can't wait to try it with the zucchini and cocoa though! Also, since almond butter can be expensive, I want to try this recipe with a mix of half cup of almond butter and half cup of strained plain yogurt. When I try I will let you know how they turn out!

@amandamandamands 4 жыл бұрын

I can't have dairy or gluten so I substitute gluten free flour for the normal one and nuttelex or a no dairy margarine for the butter, soy or almond milk for the milk and then I can just follow the recipe as written. I'm in Australia so there are plain and self raising otherwise there are coconut, chickpea, lentil etc etc. Depending on what I am making depends on what combos of the different flours I use and if I am using one of my non traditional flours I add bicarbonate of soda to it to help it rise. Have used this successfully for a few different cake/muffin recipes.
