It is not completely guilt free because it still has some kind of sugar it is, but let's say this is as "healthy" as can be! I learned it from my cooking class with Pamela Salzman (I've written about her before, you should check her blog weekly, so interesting!)
It will seem strange because it has zucchini in it, but believe me that kids have no clue about that and they thought it was the best chocolate cake ever!!!
Anyway, here is the recipe:
1 cup of creamy almond butter
1/3 cup of maple syrup or raw honey
1/4 raw cacao
1/4 tsp fine sea salt
1 large egg
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 tsp of baking soda
1 1/2 cups of shredded zucchini
1 cup of dark or semi sweet chic chips
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. grease 9x9 inch pan.
Combine almond butter, maple syrup, cacao powder, salt, egg, vanilla and baking soda until smooth. Stir in zucchini and chocolate chips. Pour into pan and bake for approx 35-45 minutes until toothpick comes out clean.
Enjoy while it is warm!! It is so yummy I am going to bake another one right now :)
