Chocolate zucchini brownies

So I loved the taste of the "No flour/sugar banana muffins" so much, that I wanted to use it as a base for another muffin recipe. I had a huge beautiful zucchini and wanted to make zucchini bread, but instead we did chocolaty goodness with it :)


Chocolate Zucchini Brownies
2 cups oats
2 ripe bananas
1/2 cup honey
1 cup flax
2 eggs
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 cup yogurt
2 cups shredded zucchini 
1 tsp vanilla
1 tsp baking powder
chocolate chips


Shred your zucchini and make sure to squeeze out the water as much as possible! 
Spray a muffin tin or line with cupcake liners, preheat the over to 400.
Put the oats in a food processor and grind until fine but not powder. Add in the rest of the ingredients (minus the chocolate chips).
Mix until everything is incorporated and the banana cannot be seen as chunks.
Spoon the mixture into the muffin pans and top with your chocolate chips. Bake for 20-30min. Depending on how much liquid you left in the zucchini  you may need to bake them longer..do the toothpick test, if it comes out clean your good to go! 

I kept 6 out to eat during the week, and placed the other 6 into a freezer bag to take out later, that way nothing goes to waste!
(you may get more than 12)
