That&#8217;s when my <em><strong>Gluten-Free Healthy Zucchini Brownies<\/strong><\/em> were born.<\/p>\n<p>As soon as these <em>Gluten-Free Healthy Zucchini Brownies came<\/em> out of the oven (warm, chocolatey and gooey) there were little hands all over them. But my real critic is my husband.\u00a0 After sampling a few he blurted &#8220;<em>These are the best brownies you&#8217;ve ever made!<\/em>&#8220;.<\/p>\n<p>Let&#8217;s me be clear that I&#8217;ve made a lot of brownies in my time.\u00a0 But I had never made Zucchini Brownies.\u00a0 I&#8217;ve done <a href=\"http:\/\/www.daniellebinns.com\/stagingsite\/2016\/08\/black_bean_brownie\/\">Black Bean Brownies<\/a> (which happens to be one of the most popular recipes on my blog).\u00a0 I&#8217;ve done <a href=\"https:\/\/chocolatecoveredkatie.com\/sweet-potato-brownies-recipe\/\">Sweet Potato Brownies<\/a> inspired by other foodies. And I&#8217;m in the process of perfecting <em>Avocado Brownies<\/em> (stay tuned!).<\/p>\n<p>But these <em>Gluten-Free Healthy Zucchini Brownies<\/em> were a first.<\/p>\n<p>When I scoped out other similar recipes, I noticed they only used a smidge of zucchini.\u00a0 Though you know I like to load up on the nutrition when I can &#8211; which is a risky move when you&#8217;re working with a dessert like brownies.\u00a0 Yet, to my surprise, the zucchini did wonders for this recipe.<\/p>\n<h2>A time-saving tip:<\/h2>\n<p>While the recipe below suggests mixing the dry ingredients first, then the wet.\u00a0 Here&#8217;s what I did to simplify the process:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Blend oats in my Vitamix<\/li>\n<li>Blend all other ingredients (except chocolate chips)<\/li>\n<li>Pour batter into baking pan and stir in chocolate chips<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>I know mixing dry and then wet is often recommended.\u00a0 However, given my recipe experimentation, it doesn&#8217;t seem to be required for these Gluten-Free Healthy Zucchini Brownies.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-8462 aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/www.daniellebinns.com\/stagingsite\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Oat-Zucchini-Brownies-2-1024x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Healthy Gluten-Healthy Zucchini Brownies\" width=\"745\" height=\"745\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>Gluten-Free Healthy Zucchini Brownie &#8211; ingredient spotlight:<\/h2>\n<p><strong>Dried Fruit:<\/strong>\u00a0 I used a mix of apricots, dates, and gooseberries but any combo works!)\u00a0 You can also sub out some of the dried fruit for apple sauce or honey. The dried fruit needs to be well blended so you may need to use a tool to push down the ingredients without hitting the blades (I have this <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3kc5F6X\">Vitamix<\/a> and use this <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/36vh1eh\">tamper<\/a> to get the ingredients incorporated).<\/p>\n<p><strong>Oats<\/strong>:\u00a0 I like using a mix of almond flour and oats for a protein boost, but you can go 100% oats if you like.\u00a0 If using regular flour you will need to adjust the portion as oats weigh less than flour.\u00a0 Be sure to choose <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3yQlzrG\">certified gluten-free oats like these<\/a> if you&#8217;d like to make these brownies gluten-free.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Zucchini<\/strong>:\u00a0 The nutrition in this recipe gets a serious boost with the folate, vitamin A, vitamin C, and magnesium &#8211; thanks to zucchini.\u00a0 When it comes to preparation, you want the zucchini to be blended well (so it becomes part of the smooth batter).\u00a0 No chunks of zucchini in this brownie.\u00a0 Oh and there&#8217;s no need to squeeze out the water as required in most recipes. So that saves some time.\u00a0 And it makes the Gluten-Free Healthy Zucchini Brownies extra moist.<\/p>\n<p>Ok let&#8217;s go make some Gluten-Free Healthy Zucchini Brownies.<\/p>\n<p><img
