Ingredients

  • 1 + 1/4 cups oat flour
  • 1/4 cup plus 2 Tbsp cocoa powder
  • 1/4-1/2 tsp instant coffee grounds I use 1/2 tsp
  • 3/4 tsp baking powder ~ corn-free if needed
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/4 + 1/8 tsp salt
  • 2/3 cup regular or beet sugar Monkfruit sweetener for low-sugar
  • 1 cup packed grated zucchini
  • 3/4 cup yogurt ~ any flavor or type. I've used plain and strawberry
  • 1 tbsp vanilla extract
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tbsp cashew butter
  • 1/3 cup semi-sweet mini chocolate chips ~ I used Enjoy Life
  • 1 tbsp cacao nibs optional
  • 1/4 cup optional dried wild blueberries

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350-degrees
  • Lightly grease baking pans.
  • In a large mixing bowl add all dry ingredients (first 8) and mix well.
  • In a small mixing bowl add zucchini, yogurt, vanilla, oil, and cashew butter. Mix well.
  • Add liquid ingredients to dry ingredients and stir to form the batter. Fold in chocolate chips and optional cacao nibs.
  • Fill your choice of baking pans with batter 3/4 full. This is for donuts, muffins, and waffles. If you are making the bread fill one bread pan with batter.
  • Bake muffins, waffles, and donuts about 22 minutes. Bake bread for about 40 minutes. Bread is done when it springs back when lightly touched.
  • If you decide to frost them wait until they are at room temperature.
