For those of you who know me, you know I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE peanut butter and chocolate. If I could taste any combination of any food at any time, that would be it. I have eaten Reese's my whole life, even melted them on top of tortilla chips with a perfection to avoid burning the peanut butter or the chocolate because that would be awful. I have created my own peanut butter and chocolate dip. I have the most difficult time turning this down and now I crave it but want to find healthier options. SO, I have done some research and have come across a fantastic recipe:
Peanut Butter and Zucchini Brownies
1 cup CRUNCHY organic peanut butter
1.5 cups zucchini (1 small zucchini thinly sliced and diced, I used a carrot peeler and then diced that up)
1/3 cup honey
1 egg
1 tsp vanilla
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp nutmeg
1.5 cups chocolate chips (I use Enjoy Life brand)
Preheat oven to 350
Combine all ingredients and mix together with beaters
Pour into greased 8x8 baking pan
Bake for about 40-45 min
I know that it sounds insane to put zucchini into brownies and there is no flour or any gluten, but these are delicious!
