Double chocolate zucchini brownies are a delicious gluten free and vegan dessert, and a great way to use up that garden zucchini!

If you have a garden, there’s always a point in the summer where you suddenly have wayyyy too many zucchini. You head out to the garden one day, and there’s a couple that are ready, and then a week later, there’s about fifty zucchini that need to be picked.

At that point, it’s baking time! Make all the zucchini recipes – zucchini cake, zucchini muffins, and double chocolate zucchini brownies.

These double chocolate zucchini brownies work with a variety of gluten free flour blends. However, the texture will vary slightly with different brands. If the batter is too thick, add a bit more water. Different flour blends soak up moisture differently, so if your batter is too thick or dry, just adjust until it looks like brownie batter.

I have not tried these with nut flour or coconut flour. They may work with almond flour, but they will be a bit heavier, and you may need to adjust the baking time.

If you aren’t gluten free, you can use regular flour or whole wheat flour instead – they will still turn out well!

    I cannot believe this palatable looking dish has zucchinis in it.
    Honestly Kelly, I have never tried vegetables in my dessert. I am definitely giving this a try this weekend! I really like how you have added gluten free ingredients!

    These look great! Do you think coconut oil could be substituted for the vegan buttery spread?

    For the zucchini brownies can you use almond flour instead of regular flour? Love your recipes.
