Servings: 1 loaf (12 slices)

Ingredients

  • 2 cups almond flour
  • ¼ cup oat flour or ¼ cup more almond flour
  • 1 cup grated zucchini squeezed firmly to release water
  • 1 flax egg 1 Tablespoon ground flaxseed + 2 ½ Tablespoons water
  • ¼ cup mashed avocado about ½ an avocado
  • 1 banana mashed
  • ¼ cup maple syrup or honey
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • ¼ teaspoon sea salt
  • ¼ cup vegan chocolate chips

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a standard loaf pan with parchment paper or grease with oil.
  • Grate zucchini, wrap in paper towels or a dish towel and squeeze hard to release as much liquid as possible. Set aside.
  • Whisk together ground flaxseed and water in a small bowl to make the flax egg. Set aside.
  • In a large bowl add dry ingredients (almond flour, oat flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon and sea salt) and stir to combine.
  • In another bowl, combine wet ingredients (zucchini, flax egg, avocado, banana, maple syrup and vanilla).
  • Add wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients and stir until everything is combined.
  • Gently stir in chocolate chips. Pour batter into prepared loaf pan and top with additional chocolate chips for decoration (this step is optional, but I like to make it look pretty.)
  • Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the middle of the loaf comes out clean. Edges and top of the loaf will be a dark, golden brown color. Let cool, slice and enjoy.
  • Store any leftovers covered in the fridge for up to one week.
